The '''Panasonic CT-27SL14J''' is a 27-inch colour television built on Panasonic's GN3 chassis, part of the wider NA10 chassis family. It was documented in a simplified service manual (order no. MTNC040103C1) that adds the CT-24SL14J, CT-24SL14UJ, CT-27SL14J and CT-27SL14UJ to the existing NA10 family manuals.<ref name="sm">Panasonic CT-24SL14J/CT-24SL14UJ/CT-27SL14J/CT-27SL14UJ Simplified Service Manual, chassis GN3 (NA10). https://archive.org/details/panasonic_ct-24sl14j-uj_27sl14j-uj_chassis_gn3_na10_sm</ref>

The set runs from 120 V 60 Hz at 2.4 A and has a 181-channel tuner covering 12 VHF, 56 UHF and 113 cable channels.<ref name="um">Panasonic CT-20SL14/CT-24SL14/CT-27SL14/CT-32SL14/CT-36SL14 Operating Instructions, "Specifications". https://archive.org/details/manualsonline-id-36100240-583a-4e2e-a5af-4361bdf7c4cd</ref> It measures 29.69 × 21.03 × 23.68 inches (75.4 × 53.4 × 60.2 cm) and weighs 35.4 kg.<ref name="sm" />

== Features ==

The rear VIDEO 1 input is dual-purpose: it takes 480i component video on Y/P<sub>B</sub>/P<sub>R</sub> phono jacks from a DVD player, or a conventional composite source on the shared Y/Video jack, and the on-screen label changes to match whichever is connected.<ref name="um" /> INPUT 2 accepts either S-Video or composite, but not both at once — connecting both causes interference.<ref name="um" /> A further audio/video input sits behind the front control panel.<ref name="um" />

Rear audio output jacks deliver 0–2.0 V RMS into 4.7 kilohms and can be switched between fixed and variable level, with the internal speakers turned off from the AUDIO menu when an external amplifier is used.<ref name="um" />
