Home owner big job. In the trade this is called a service change or upgrade. It is a complicated job in as much as you have to know wire sizes, ampacity of wires and proper electrical workmanship. Such a project should be left to a licensed electrical contractor to take out the proper permits and call for proper inspections. By taking this route it will leave you confident that if any mishaps happen to the installation down the road your insurance company will be behind you 100%. <><><>

As always, if you are in doubt about what to do, the best advice anyone should give you is to call a licensed electrician to advise what work is needed.

Before you do any work yourself,

on electrical circuits, equipment or appliances,

always use a test meter to ensure the circuit is, in fact, de-energized.

IF YOU ARE NOT ALREADY SURE YOU CAN DO THIS JOB

SAFELY AND COMPETENTLY

REFER THIS WORK TO QUALIFIED PROFESSIONALS.

The only way you can upgrade your 2002 Mitsubishi Eclipse alternator is to change the alternator. Larger amperage alternators are available.

What is amperage?

Amperage is electric current of flow.


What is the amperage of a t2l 250v fuse?

The amperage of a T2L 250v fuse is typically 8 amps. It is a misconception that it has an amperage of 3.


If my AC technician says my unit is rated at 28.9 amps and drawing 24.8 and should draw about half of rated capacity and that compressor needs to be replaced Is this correct?

There are several amperage ratings on AC compressors/motors. Locked Motor Amperage (LRA) is the amperage that the motor is fused for. The load of the motor is expressed in amperage or wattage, which is probably the case here. Low amperage readings on an AC unit being charged by amperage load would indicate low freon. High amperage readings indicate overcharge when charging by the amperage load. AC units are not accurately charged by amperage readings and the efficiency of motors is not expressed in amperage readings.


Can you upgrade a 100A main circuit breaker to a higher amp?

I doubt if the 125 amp breaker will fit into a 100 amp box. This is due to the rating of the box only being rated at 100 amps. If this exchange could be made then the service conductors feeding the box must be upgraded to take the 125 amperage that the breaker will allow on the conductor.


It is ok to use a fuse with a higher amperage rating and not ok to use a fuse with a smaller amperage rating why?

It is ok to use a fuse with a higher amperage rating and not ok to use a fuse with a smaller amperage rating why?


When a circuit is inductive the current has what voltage?

This doesn't make sense, "current" is "amperage" so the higher the voltage the lower the amperage, and the lower the voltage the higher the amperage.


What part of speech is the word upgrade?

Upgrade is a noun (an upgrade) and a verb (to upgrade).


What does volts times amperage equal?

Voltage is equal to amperage time resistance. V=IR Therefore, I'd say voltage times amperage is equal to amperage squared times resistance. VI=IIR Really there's no point in multiplying the two. However, if you were to divide voltage by amperage, you would have the resistance of the circuit. V/I=R

There is no proper amperage...no such thing as amperage, its called current... measured in amps...
