Safety Instructions
Any turntable or equipment with AC synchro-
nous motors, such as some cooling fans
should not be used with MultiWave II. This
equipment must be used with 60Hz SineWave
mode, or connected to the Filtered AC zone
outlets.
We recommend the use of the SineWave
[SINE] or TubeWave [TWAVE] with any type of
tube based audio products.
Read the operating instructions provided with the
P1000.
Retain the operating instructions for later use and
reference.
Unplug the P1000 from the wall outlet
before changing the fuse or performing
any cleaning or service.
Do not operate the P1000 near water.
Avoid placement near a water reservoir or
excessive moisture.
When replacement parts are required, be
sure they are specified by the manufac-
turer to have the same characteristics as
the original part. Unauthorized substitutions
may result in fire, electric shock, or other
hazards.
Do not operate with faulty or frayed power
cables.
Overview
The Power Plant P1000 is a power regenerator
capable of delivering the highest level of AC per-
formance to all audio and video components.
The PS Audio Power Plant P1000 is designed
to operate as a stand-alone power management
device, or as part of a larger power management
system. In many cases one P1000 will be all
that is necessary to protect, clean and regener-
ate power for any audio system or home theater
system.
The P1000 has two power delivery zones: Eight
outlets produce “Regenerated AC” with MultiWave
II™. Two outlets pass “Filtered AC” by filtering
power with Ultimate Outlet™ technology.
The Regenerated AC zone is capable of deliver-
ing up to 1000 watts of peak power, depending on
the load. The filtration zone is not current limiting
and will deliver as much power as a 15 amp wall
socket can provide.
All settings in the P1000 are non-volatile. Any
changes made to the settings will not be lost, even
if the P1000 is disconnected from AC power.

few seconds and power it back up. If the “FAULT”
message continues to appear, please contact your
dealer for additional service.
How do I reset the settings to factory default?
The P1000 was designed to easily reset the micro-
processor back to the original factory default. If the
P1000 is displaying any characters in the front panel
that seem abnormal, if the front panel buttons do
not correlate with the display read-outs or to simply
reset all settings back to the factory defaults follow
these instructions.
With the unit powered off, hold down both Mode
buttons (Up and Down) and press the Power button.
This will activate the Setup Display Mode. Using the
Mode Up or Down buttons, cycle to the “RESET”
mode. Press either Edit button (Up or Down) and
the display will read “GO ->” to confirm the choice.
Press either Edit button again to perform the reset
function. Once it is complete, the P1000 will exit the
Setup Display Mode automatically.
