Will 10 hp motor run with 230 volt?
no
Appliances usually run on what volt circuits?
120 volts
How do you modify 240 volt appliances to run directly on 12 volts?
You don't.
Can 240 volt appliances from NZ run on 240 Volts in the US?
yes 240volts is 240 volts
Do a 12 volt 50 watt bulb and a 230 volt 50 watt bulb draw the same current?
A 50 watt bulb designed to run on 12 volts takes 4.17 amps. A 50 watt bulb designed to run on 230 volts takes 0.217 amps.
Can 400volts heater element get supply from 230 volts?
Yes you can run a 400 volt heater on 230 volts but you will not get the full wattage rating that the heater produces at 400 volts.
What size wire do you need to run 100 ft 75 amp 230 volt?
Depends on the size of the circuit which you did not list.
Can New Zealand household electrical appliances be used in the US?
I believe that you can't use New Zealand household electric appliances in the US without adaptations. The residential voltage/Frequency (Hz) in New Zealand is 130V/50 Hz while in US it is 120V/60 Hz <<>> The voltage in New Zealand is 230 volt 50Hertz. The voltage in North America is 120/240 volts at 60 Hertz. A totally resistive appliance will operate fine on the 240 volt portion of the 120/240 volt system. Any appliances that have a motor to operate will not work as efficiently. A 50 Hertz motor on a 60 Hertz system will overheat and run slower. Many appliances use synchronous timer motors for control of the larger appliances. The timing of the appliance will be thrown off as the timers will run faster due to the appliances design to operate only on 50 Hertz.
Is it safe to run a 230 volt with 110 electric?
No a 230 volt appliance should not be pluuged into a 110 volt socket (And vice versa) you need to buy a converter that can be plugged into the 110 volt outlet then the appliance can be plugged into the converter.
What is the required wire size for a 230 feet run 480 volt 100 amp?
Depends on length. The more length, the more resistance.
Would US appliance's like a clothes washer that run on 120 volts work on European 230 volts?
Definitely not !! it would be dangerous to use 120 volt equipment on a 230 volt supply, it would either blow the fuse or blow up . . You need a transformer to convert 230 volts to 120 volts, and you need one of the right rating. For a washing machine that might be quite a big transformer. We have 110 volt transformers for power tools but they are not big enough.
Can you run 440 volt appliances off a 220 volt supply?
The appliance should be marked with the correct voltage range, and the voltage applied must lie within this range. Otherwise it might be dangerous.
