If you have a 240V 22A welder which has a plug similar but smaller than a dryer plug can you use this in a 120V outlet?
yes ofcourse they both are the same
An electric clothes dryer draws 22 A of current from a 240 V wall outlet How much power in watts does it use?
An electric clothes dryer demands 22A from a 240V outlet at approximately 90% Power Factor. The power demand on the outlet should be about 240V x 22A x 0.9 = 4.75 kW. The active components in an electric clothes dryer are the heating element (100% PF) and the electric motor that turns the tumbler (70-80% PF). The formula you are looking for is W = I x E. (W is watts, I is current in amps, E is volts)
Can a 240v be plugged in to a 220v socket?
In some parts of the world, an 1875 watt hair dryer can and does use 220 volts from a 220 volt outlet?
If you have a spa that is 240V with 4 wires can you hook an extension cord from a 240V welder to it to see if it works if the cord only has three wires?
Well, maybe. What is the current rating on the spa circuit? What is the current rating on the welder? If the welder is larger than the outlet, then no. It must be the other way around. If the current ratings are OK, then yes. Your welder doesn't need 110V so it doesn't connext to neutral. Connect the hot leads to hot and ground to ground.
Can you convert a gas dryer 120V hookup to an electric dryer 240V hookup?
Chances are there is more than 1 outlet connected to the 110volt circuit you are looking to convert. So therefore the easy answer is No. The 240volt dryer circuit must be a dedicated single circuit for the dryer only.

How many volts does your electric clothes dryer usually run on?
In North America, the standard is 240V, 60Hz.
What is 240v?
the voltage of the mains electricity in the UK
How do you convert a 4 prong 240V outlet to a 3 prong 240V outlet?
Disregard the neutral

An electric clothes dryer draws 15 A of current from a 240-V wall outlet How much power in watts does it use?
watts = volts X amps, so: 15A X 240V = 3600 watts

Is it necessary to connect the ground wire to a 4-prong 240V outlet - I am switching a 3-outlet to a 4-prong outlet for my new dryer but the ground wire is cut off so I can't connect it?
Only if you wanted to fry your hair.for God sake(and yours)buy a new cord to hook up your dryer
What would happen if a 240V breaker was on and someone attempted to turn on the clothes dryer?
Don't understand this question. If the breaker is on, then the dryer would function normally, if the breaker your are referring to is the one for the dryer. If the breaker is off then no function. A dryer runs on 220.
Can 240V washer run on 120V outlet?
No.
