True. But if you're trying to get >
$5000 for something, it doesn't seem unreasonable to suggest that investing a bit in
getting an extension cord run to the location of the machine would be a good idea. The
absence of that effort makes me wonder if the owner knows what the outcome of such a test
would be and doesn't want to have to report it.
But what would that accomplish? I think testing something like this requires a lot more
effort than plugging it in and hitting the circuit breaker. To test this to see if some
ODT comes up probably requires quite a lot of effort (locate a terminal/pc, wire it up,
figure out where to plug it into the 780, etc. If this guy is a bulk dealer I would be
surprised if he has the knowledge to do anything more than a power test which, again,
would not be very useful and could even be detrimental.
