Why were/are there commercial vacuums made with 2-wire cords? I know all about those with the mandatory 3-wire setup, but I have seen a lot of these commercial-grade vacuums with 2-wire cords. For example, Hoover sold many uprights for the janitorial market in both flavors.
For another example, here are two Royal 501 Prince hand vacuums, for the commercial market, with 2-wire cords. I've yet to find one with a 3-wire cord (model 3-501) aside from the "Turbo Groomer" version, and I know Charlie C. (vacman1961) remembers seeing one of these in gray (or dark blue), marked "Royal Commercial" on its bag. ~Ben |
