No, you can not plug a 240 volt amplifier into a 120 volt outlet. That said there are a number of step-up Transformers available that will convert 110V to 220V - that's the simplest way to do it. You should make sure the transformer is rated at many times the power of your amplifier, because of inefficiencies in the amplifier.
Look on your amplifier to see how many amps it uses at 220V. Double that number for going to 110 and add 20% more amps as a conversion margin. Take that number and multiply it by 110 to get the watts you need to supply. Size the transformer accordingly.
eg.
5 amps @ 220V
5 amps * 2 = 10 amps
10*20% = 2 amps
Total amps = 12 amps
12 amps*110 = 1320 watts
In this example a transformer rated at or above the calculated wattage is recommended.
Yes. Outlets are regulated at 110v. Use an overload circuit breaker to be on the safe side.
yes
You can buy a converter.
You're looking at 130v light bulbs? Well...the answer is "nowhere." A 130v light bulb has a heavier-duty filament in it than a 120v bulb does, so the bulb will last longer. Put it in a regular socket and it will work fine.
The average air compressor uses only about 120v. Which is the average house socket. Thus using about 400 Watts of power.
No. If you plug something that needs 24 volt into a 120v socket you will probably ruin your device.
Household is 120/240 volts at 60Hz. The average wall socket is 120v 60Hz.
You don't, at least, not legally.
yes
It is 120V
100 Volts
You can buy a converter.
No. A household receptacle is 120V. It will not work.
No, the cord ends have different configurations to prevent this sort of thing from happening.
