Best Answer

You will need an interpose relay. This relay will have a 24 volt coil. The circuit power for the relay will come from a 120VAC to 24VAC volt transformer. The 24 VAC circuit will have the thermostat in series with the coil of the relay. Thermostat calls for heat, the coil energizes and the relay's contacts close. Your circulator pump is controlled by the relay. On selecting the relay make sure that the contact ratings can handle the full load amps of the circulator. A contact rating of 120 volts at 15 amps will do very nicely.

What is the difference between single pole and double pole thermostats?

A line thermostat on a 240 volt heater must open both of the supply lines that feed the heater. This is where the double pole thermostat is used. On 120 volt heaters only one hot line needs to be opened to shut the supply off from the source therefore a single pole thermostat is used.


Does A Thermostat control one hot wire for a 240 Volt Fan?

Answer for USA, Canada and countries running a 60 Hertz supply service.A line voltage thermostat for 240 volt control should be a two pole device. Code states that both of the "hot" wires must be broken when shutting the load off. By just shutting one leg off, the load device still has a 120 volt potential to ground through the unswitched leg. This is an unsafe condition. If any work has to be done on the load device and with the thermostat seen to be in the off position, a presumption is made that there is no voltage at the device. Best scenario turn the breaker off when working on any 240 circuits, don't depend on disconnecting devices within the circuit.


Can you use a double pole thermostat to replace a single pole thermostat?

Answer for USA, Canada and countries running a 60 Hz supply service.A double pole thermostat is a line thermostat and not to be confused with a low voltage stat. When the heating load has 240 volts for a supply voltage, both lines from the distribution panel are supposed to disconnect when the thermostat reaches the set point temperature. A single pole thermostat is only used on a 120 volt heater an the return leg from the heater is a neutral wire.A two pole thermostat can be used on a 120 volt circuit but a single pole thermostat should not be used on a 240 volt circuit. The reason being is that on a 240 volt circuit using a single pole thermostat, one "hot" leg doesn't get isolated from the heater and is always "hot" to ground. This is a shock hazard if you are working on the heater and depending on the thermostat as a disconnect from the distribution voltage.Before you do any work yourself,on electrical circuits, equipment or appliancesalways use a test meter to ensure the circuit is, in fact, de-energized.IF YOU ARE NOT ALREADY SURE YOU CAN DO THIS JOBSAFELY AND COMPETENTLYREFER THIS WORK TO QUALIFIED PROFESSIONALS.


What wattage 12 volt inverter do you need to drive a 240 volt quarter horsepower pump motor?

You need to find the wattage of the pump motor. This is found by multiplying the voltage of the motor by the amperage of the motor. Once you have this figure use it to find an inverter that can handle this wattage load at a 240 volt output.


Can you tweak a 400 Volt AC to go up 440 Volt AC Referring to a Standby Generating Set?

Yes, there is a control knob on the gen-set that will have a label called field excitation or just field. Look at the volt meter and turn this control in a clockwise direction. The voltage should increase as you turn the control.

What makes a heat pump change from cooling to heating Is it the reversing valve or is it something else I guess what i am asking is it that componet or does it have some kind of thermostat on it?

Typically, your central thermostat sends a 24 volt signal to a terminal labelled "O", down a (usually orange-colored) wire to the reversing valve. This energizes the valve to switch over to cooling operation. For heat, the 24 volt signal is removed, and the valve defaults to the heating position.The HVAC Veteran
