Can you replace the 240v plug on my 240v mitre saw with a 110v plug and run it off a 110v transformer?

Changing the plug will not change the power needed to run the saw. If the saw has a dual voltage motor then a wiring change can be done to switch the saw from 240 to 110 volts. If it is not a dual voltage system then the saw must be fed with 220 volts.

Can a 240V - 110V stepdown transformer be reversed to take a primary load of 180V to secondary 240Volts?
No
Can 240v tools be converted to 110v?
It would be better if you got a transformer and stepped up the voltage.
Can you rewire a 240v lamp light fitting or small appliance to 110v and if so how?
Yes, you need a transformer
Can you run a 240v appliance ie a radio that's plugged into a socket connected to a 110v system on a market stall. h-accessories.co.UK by the way?
NO The radio will actually run at about 6 volts via an internal transformer. If you plug it into a 110v supply you will only produce 3 volts which is the same as trying to run it with flat batteries. The only way is to use a 110v to 240v transformer which will be rather large, cumbersome and heavy.
Can 240v coil contactor be connected to 110v supply?
no
Can 110v circuit power 240v devices?
You need a step-up transformer, to go from 110 to 220-240 volts. Then a 110 volt supply can operate 240 volt equipment.
Can you lower 277v to 240v?
With a transformer.
What would the control voltage be for a transformer marked 240v 24vac?
A control transformer marked 240V - 24Vac would have a control voltage of 24 volts.
240v box outside for a hot tub you need a 110v receptacle Can you wire it off the 240v box?
Using a box that is hire voltage than what you need can cause a short, and even a fire. So using a 240V box, when all you need is a 110v receptacle, wouldn't be a good idea.
How do you convert a 240v drill to 110v?
One word: KABOOM.
Can 110v tools be used with 240v without using a transformer by switching the plugs?
No. Trying this will likely destroy the tool and may likely cause injury. The plugs are made differently to prevent them from being connected to incorrect power sources.
Can an American 240V dual phase dryer be converted to work in Korea with 240V single phase power?
you could possibly design a fix for it but it would be a lot of trouble. the American dryer has internal components that run off 110v and that 110v is available from the three wire 220v circuit in the typical usa residence. this is because of the third wire, the neutral. the Korean 220 would be 2 wire. you would have to go inside the dryer, add a 220/110 transformer and rewire the dryer so that the 110v loads come off that transformer. it would then no longer be ul listed and would have to be evaluated by the authority having jurisdiction in Korea and back here in the usa.
