I have searched and searched and I cant seem to find a solid answer to this anywhere.  I know the APW3++ does not include a PSU wire, but im trying to figure out what is required for the psu wire for an APW3++. Everywhere I look I see different wires being offered up as the wire needed for the APW3++, then I see other people saying conflicting answers.

Basically I live in the states, I have 20amp breakers but as of now they go to 5-15p receptacles.  From everything I read people say 110v 14awg 5-15p-C13 wires are perfectly fine for the APW3++ load.  Some people say you need to get 220v, which would require 5-15/20R-C13 wires and some re-wiring slightly at prospective location. 

If I purchase 14awg 5-15p -> C13 wires for the PSU should they run fine with no issue? If needed to get the 5-15/20R 220v 14AWG wire and make adjustments I will, but I have already got the other wires in route...seeing as most places say they will work no issue.

Im sorry if this answer is easily found somewhere else, but I've dug and dug and cannot seem to figure it out.

Be careful of choosing a wire cable make sure to always use heavy duty wire cables because there are times that the wire is getting more hot if you run it in heavy load for few hours not recommended for 24 hours running your miner.. c13 cable is right but you should look for cable wire that can handle 15amps in 24x7.
For safety look for a wire which is 2x of the amps needed of one psu or 3x is always better.

You will be fine with your current setup as long as the miner you are running requires less than 1200W, allowing for some leeway.

When it comes to the power cable don't skimp, is the best advice I can give.

I think this is what you would need, unless you have plans to grow your mine you don't need 220V yet.
