Can GFCI circuit breaker handle a 240V circuit with a 120V circuit sub-paneled off if it?
I don't know if you are trying to ask if you can run a 240V panel off a GFCI or run a 120 V sub panel off of a GFCI. Can you clarify please,,,Thanks
If you have a 240V outlet for a window AC unit can you connect a switch to shut the outlet off?
Yes, just make sure it is a 220 volt switch.
Can you convert an existing 120V plug on an appliance to a 240V plug not speaking of a converter but actually changing the plug so there are no long term effects on the appliance?
If I understand your question, Can you run a 110 appliance off of a 220 volt outlet? You could by only using one leg of the 220. You may also consider changing the outlet. Put in a regular 110 outlet and capping off one leg of the 220 in the wall box. You still have a neutral and a ground to work with. I read this as the questioner doesn't want to modify the outlet. Check the voltage ratings on the device. Many electronic devices nowadays can havdle 120V or 240V as it is cheaper to manufacture one powersupply and sell it everywhere. If your device is rated for 240V, you can put a 240V plug on it. If it only says 120V, no dice. 240V will burn it up.
How do you wire a 1500W 240V flood light that has ground white and black wires?
the wires coming off double pole will give you 240 volts,110 each the black and white hook to these,doesn`t matter which way,ground to ground Ground is always ground, Black and white are your two "hots." You will need a dedicated circuit, you cannot run this off existing 120V wiring. A 15A 240V circuit should be more than sufficient. If this is a permanent instalation you can use 14/2 wire as you normally would, and wire it as you normally would with the exception of the 240V breaker. If you install switches, timers, etc. Make sure they are all rated for 240V. Remember, you can't just mix-and-match between 120 and 240V. 240 appliances will not run on 120 and 120 appliances will burn up on 240.
Can power be turned off on a Friday?
There is no limit on when the power can be turned off.
How do you build a power supply that runs off the UK wall socket 240V and provides 12V 5V and 3.3V for an Arduino Project?

12 volt boat winch and you want to hook it to mains 240volt or is it easier just to run it off a battery?
You can hook up a battery and 240v 12v heavy duty charger system,that is the easiest way to get over that problem. The charger has to deliver enough amperage to cover the load from the winch.RegardsJohn Cas
Why car stereo will not turn off with the car?
the ACC wire from the stereo is connected to constant power (+12V)
When you connect your new radio to the 12v wire and ground it correctly you still get no power what could be the problem in a 90 Buick Lesabre?
On most radios there is an additional wire called "keyed power" or "switched power" or something similar. That needs to be connected to the accessories circuit (if you want the radio to turn off when you turn the car off), or to 12v power (if you want the radio to stay on when the key is turned off).
1995 jeep computer blinks when started till you set time and date?
Sounds like the computer isn't getting the needed 12v power when the vehicle is turned off. Check fuses and wires, Verify that you get 12v on the power wire, not the ignition wire. The Ignition wire only works when the ignition is activated. The 12v power wire provides power for the simple data, as in date and time, and saves that you have put in.
How the power supply works in the computer?
The power supply in a computer runs the 110 volts mains power through a transformer into a lower voltage, then lowers that into different voltages (+5v, -12v, +12v, +3.3v) which i believe are then stabilised independently. The power supply also handles the turning on/off the voltages triggered by a signal from the motherboard.
Which uses less power a 9v CD player operating off of a WAGAN 12 v power supply inverter or a 9v CD player operating off a 12-volt-to-9-volt converter plugged to the WAGAN 12v power supply?
Ideally both ways use the same amount of energy. But it is not desirable to operate a 9V CD player at 12V
Can an espresso machine with a 20A 240V Leviton plug be powered without rewiring?
You need a dedicated circuit for that. You cannot power a 220V device off 110V.
Where is the VIN on a 1986 Honda Fourtrax?
check the manual for the people that dont have the manual like myself it is located on the front rack underneth the plastic fenders. right where you would mount a winch. chances are if you have a winch on your bike you will have to take the winch off to be able to read it.
When connecting a stereo is the 12V contant wire a connection to the battery?
yes a 12v constant is a wire that has 12 volts even with the ignition off, you should not have to run a new wire the existing stereo should have one for station memory. with the ignition off test all wires on the stereo connector, only one should have power.

If you put a 60W 120V bulb in a 120V lamp that has a transformer for 240V and plug it into a 240V outlet will it work or blow the circuitry?
Off hand no but your explanations are not clear as to who is doing what to whom,,
