A single phase meter will have two "hot" wires, one black the other red. Each wire will carry 120 volts. Essentially these two wires together will provide you with 240 volts. Hire a professional when dealing with electricity.
220 volts alternating current
Yes, 220 volts is in the same voltage classification as 230 volts.
look at the label on the power supply most work for 90 to 250 volts
No. It would have to be wired for 220 volts and would have to be rated for 220 volts and would have a different configuration so that a typical 120 v plug wouldn't fit the outlet.
watts = volts * amps--> Amps = watts/ volts therefore; 2000/220= 9.09 amps
Two wires are needed for 220 volts.
If the Peak to neutral voltage is 220 volts, the root mean square voltage is 155.6 volts (sqrt(220)).
220 volts alternating current
Does this air conditioner require 220 volts?
220 volts, 110 volts, 440 volts, 400 volts, AC or DC voltage. High voltage like - 220 KV, 400 KV, etc
That is not a true statement
110 volts
Yes, 220 volts is in the same voltage classification as 230 volts.
A 220 volt line may put out 250 volts because this specification features voltage that varies between 220 and 250 volts. In other countries, the electricity varies in voltage between 110-120 volts.
You need a step-up transformer.
A three phase panel will not give you 110 and 220 volts. A three phase four wire panel will, but not at these voltages. The nearest voltages will be 120 and 208 volts. The 120 volt is the wye voltage of 208 volts. 208/1.73 = 120 volts. A single phase three wire panel will give you 110 and 220 volts.
your outlets work on AC current(alternating) meaning it cycles from -120 volts to +120 volts 60 times a second.... there are two phases in your house at 180degrees of electrical separation(meaning that while one phase is +120 the other is at -120, +90 -90.. etc etc assuming they are phased properly. so.... from -120 to 0(120 volts of difference in potential) then from 0 to +120(120v diff in potential) you get 240 volts for your stove. Im sorry i did this explanation with Canadian voltages and not American(110 vs 120 and 220 vs 240)
