A: This UPS uses 110v AC and a NEMA L5-30P connection.

Q: 9. How loud is this unit under normal operation? Would you use it in your home?

A: It isn't overly loud. It would depend. If you have a separate room that you are using it in I would say yes, but in a common area you would still have a steady hum. APC's website should give you a db level.

Q: 10. What type of adapter do I need to plug this into a normal household (20amp) wall outlet?

A: Thank you for your interest in our products. It would depend on what type of outlets you have at your house. If they are 20 amp outlets then yes it would work. I would just confirm that the outlet is a 20 amp outlet because if it is a 15amp outlet it would derate the UPS.
