How do you calculate amp draw for 115v 1 phase and the breaker size?
To calculate the amp draw of a device you need to use one of the following three formula. I = W/E, I = E/R, I =√W/R. Once the amperage of the circuit is found then the size of the breaker can be established.
Can you use a 3 amp adapter on 5 amp device?
NO
Can a 125V and 30 amp plug be used for a device that requires 24V and 50 amp?
No. If you plug something that needs 24 volt into a 120v socket you will probably ruin your device.
If a battery has 100 amp hours at 12 volts dc how many amp hours will it have with a 120 volt ac inverter connected?
12 Amps x 12 volts = 1200 watts 1200 watts / by 120 volts = 10 amps at 120 volts Answer is 10 amp hours
What is the difference between 12 volt 4 amp and 12 volt 5 amp battery?
The capacities of batteries are rated in amp hours. The higher the amp hour rating of a battery the longer the device connected to the battery will operate. Depending on what the connected load draw in amps is, will determine how long the connected device will operate.
Can you use a 160 amp car alternator to run a 100 amp inverter?
160 amps is more than ample to run a 100 amp inverter.. what you need to look at is the required input amperage of the inverter and compare that to what's present in the circuit it's wired/plugged into. In most cases, you should be able to run up to a 400 amp inverter plugged into a 12v outlet, but again, you need to make sure.

Will a DC to AC inverter power a 13.5 Amp motor?
It depends on the inverter. Keep in mind that the average starting current of a motor is four times its running current, so the inverter would need to be able to handle a 54 Amp transient. (Or higher, depending on design margins.)
Will a 10 amp dc to ac inverter handle a 12v 50 amp battery for dc input?
depends on your load...
Can you use a 60 amp breaker with a 50 amp overcurrent device?
A 50 amp breaker is an overcurent device.
Can you use a 3 amp adapter on 5 amp device?
NO
Will Australian amp play in Canada?
No. Voltage in Australia: 240 V --- 50Hz Voltage in Canada: 120 V --- 60Hz
Why op-amp is called as stone?
it is a ohmic device

How do you wire a 3000 watt inverter into a 200 amp disconnect panel?
You're asking about something that is potentially very dangerous. There is some very specific equipment that isolates an inverter from the utility main. In the event of a power failure, if your equipment is installed improperly you could cause injury to utility workers. Do NOT install the inverter if you are not properly trained and have an adequate knowledge of not just electricity, but also extensive knowledge of the inverter and disconnect equipment.
Can you go from a 30 amp male plug from a generator to a 20 amp female transfer switch?
What is a 20 amp female transfer switch? I have never heard of such a device.
If a battery has 100 amp hours at 12 volts dc how many amp hours will it have with a 120 volt ac inverter connected?
12 Amps x 12 volts = 1200 watts 1200 watts / by 120 volts = 10 amps at 120 volts Answer is 10 amp hours
