A dryer requires a 30 amp receptacle. This will be to receive a four blade dryer plug. The wire needed will be a three copper wire #10 cable set with a bare #14 copper ground wire. The breaker will be a two pole 30 amp breaker.
You can replace a higher rating fuse with a lower rating provided it works with the device without constantly blowing. So try the 30 amp fuse in your lawnmower and if it doesn't blow and the mower works okay, you are fine. If it blows you will have to go back to 40.
Depends on the wire size you are using. If the generator breaker is a 30 amp then install a 30 amp breaker.
This is not a good idea to do. Sometimes just that little bit of extra current that the 45 amp fuse will allow to reach the 40 amp load might be enough to destroy the device.
What size is the wire? AWG 10, 600V is rated for 30 amps. Any AWG less than 6 would also be ok for a 30 amp circuit....
If you are referring to a cloths dryer, the answer depends on the requirements of the dryer. Most dryers require AWG#10 wire with a 30 amp fuse. If the wiring is AWG#12 then use a 20 amp breaker but never use it on AWG#10 which requires a 30 amp breaker. If you are referring to a hair dryer then yes a 20 amp breaker is fine.
If your breaker box will accept tandom breakers you can remove 4 single pole breakers add 2 tandoms this will empty 2 spaces for your 2 pole 30 amp for the dryer
Typically yes if you use a 30 amp breaker and the dryer uses 230-240 volts.
yes
No, you can not install a service panel in a washer/dryer closet. The National Electrical Code (US) requires you to maintain work space in front of the panel (3' deep and 30" wide)
Not a good thing to do! If you are blowing 10 amp fuses, you have a problem with that circuit. Putting a 30 amp fuse in its place can do more damage.
I have vintage headlights converted to h4 halogen bulbs, my 30 amp fuse blows when i hit high beam, i was told to install a relay, hoe do i do this??
A 30 amp fuse is required.
The 1965 Chevrolet Impala SS fuse box requires a 20 amp fuse for the taillights. A 30 amp fuse can be used when a 20 amp fuse is not available.
circuit breaker fuse
To ensure you are using the correct rating of fuse simply divide the total wattage of your appliance by 250 and round up to the closest value. For example, a 1500 watt hair dryer should be fitted with a fuse equal to 1500 divided by 250 = 7amp
