What is the resistance of the secondary of a 24 volt transformer?

For the 120/24V transformer, the primary side is around 50ohm, the secondary side is 2~


How many watts is 40va?

40 VA is the apparent power of the load. It is simply the applied voltage multiplied by the resulting current in amperes. Given the VA and the Volts merely divide the VA by the volts to get I=VA/A = 40VA/24V= 1.667 Amperes rms. Andy B


What is the amp rating for a 208 Volt 100 VA transformer?

Is 120 V the primary or secondary voltage? If the primary (input) voltage is 120, then at full load the transformer will draw about 0.42 A from the line, and the current delivered to the load depends on the secondary (output) voltage. If the secondary (output) voltage is 120, then at full load the transformer will deliver about 0.42 A to the load, and the current drawn fom the line depends on the primary (input) voltage. amps = watts / volts So, for instance, if your transformer has a 120 V primary, and a 24 V secondary, as you might find in your AC unit or furnace: Primary current (at full load) - A = W / V A = 50 / 120 A = 0.4166 Secondary current - A = 50 / 24 A = 2.08


Can a 240 volt light bulb be used in a 24 volt socket?

You can do without harm though it will only be 1/100th the brightness as it will only draw 1/100th the intended power, if you put a 24V bulb in a 240V socket it will burn out immediately as it would draw 100 times it's intended power.power = voltage squared / resistance


What does 24vac 4.8va equal in amps?

If a 208V 24V transformer is humming with no voltage on the 24V side is it bad?

Of course it is bad, whether it`s humming or not.


What is a 24v transformer used for?

A 24v transformer converts 120v to a lower voltage for use in push buttons, like doorbells, thermostats, gas valves, or air conditioning systems. They are an essential tool for electricians.

How do you convert 24volts to 12 volts?

If you want to convert 24v AC into 12v Ac, it's simple. Just get a transformer to convert 24 volts into 12 volts. This is called a stepdown transformer. If you want to convert 24v DC into 12v DC, it's more complicated. First you have to change the 24v DC into 24v AC by a switching converter that changes DC into AC. Then you would use a stepdown transformer as in the former example. Once the 24v AC is converted to 12v AC, then you use a rectifier bridge to change the 12v AC into 12v DC.


Why does my 120v 24v reduce to 28v. when you connect it to your boiler it blows out the transformer. is a problem with the transformer or the panel?

Please go to discuss question page.


How can you use step down transformer of 240 v ac to 24 v dc as step up transformer?

A step down transformer has a higher voltage (in this case 240v) primary and a lower voltage (in this case 24v) secondary. A step up transformer has a lower voltage primary and higher voltage secondary. In reality the transformer doesn't care which is which, so if you wire the 24v side as the primary and the 240v side as the secondary, you have a step up transformer. You might want to stick a fan on it to be sure it doesn't overheat, but that's all you need do.AnswerFrom your question, it sounds as though you are describing a power supply, rather than a transformer, as you specify the output is 24-V d.c. (direct current). Unfortunately, you cannot apply 24-V d.c. to the output side of a power supply, in order to obtain a 240-V a.c. output at the input side! This is because a power supply consists of a transformer to step down the a.c. voltage, and a rectifier (and, possibly, a smoothing filter) to produce a d.c. output. Applying d.c. to the input of a rectifier will not produce the a.c. necessary to run your transformer in the opposite direction!


How many amps can a 250 va transformer carry?

A transformer is a power source. It will provide voltage to a device. Find the voltage rating on the device, say 24V. 250/24 = ~10A.


How many amps does a 600 watt low voltage transformer box pull?

The transformer itself does not pull current. Whatever you connect to the transformer pulls current. Whatever the output voltage of the transformer is, divide that into 600 and you get maximum current possible without burning up the transformer. At 24V that's 25 amps.


Is cloth wiring for a doorbell transformer standard or safe?

That's old school wiring, but if the insulation's good it's safe. The wiring on the secondary side of the transformer--the bell and the switch--runs on 24v.

How do you connect your two 250w solar panels in a 24v system?

The best would be parallel as these panels normally have > 30V output voltage, which would be sufficient for a 24V inverter/load.There is also a risk of overvoltage on your charge controller connecting them in series, check if your charge contrroller can accommodate the sum of the max output voltage of the 2 panels before attemptins series on this configuration.There are additional efficiency advantages of connecting your panels parallel.
