Imported electronic multi meters are available in the market app.costing Indian Rupees 130/-. With these the voltage can be tested. <><><>
As always, if you are in doubt about what to do, the best advice anyone should give you is to call a licensed electrician to advise what work is needed.
Before you do any work yourself,
on electrical circuits, equipment or appliances,
always use a test meter to ensure the circuit is, in fact, de-energized.

∙ 10y agoIf by using the word "test" it is meant to establish the condition of the motor in an operative state, then there are a couple of things that can be done. The very first thing is to measure the amperage that the motor is drawing and compare that value to what the manufacturer recommends on the motor's nameplate. The second and important thing to do is establish the condition of the motors windings to ground. This is done with a megger. Continuous readings over the life time of the motor will show a continuous degrading of the insulation capacity of the motor' internal windings. When the readings get low enough, at some point in time the decision has to be made as to whether it is time to replace the motor before the windings short circuit and there is a total motor failure. In large industrial installations this type of preventative maintenance prevents production line shutdowns.

Can a 277 unit heater be supplied with 240 volts?
Absolutely not!! 277 volts is developed from a 480 volt power supply employing 1 conductor and a neutral. 240 volt power comprises two hot conductors and NO neutral.
How do you know if you have a 240 power supply or 120 power supply?
Some countries (Europe, Japan) use 120 volt systems. Australia uses 240 volt. One way of find out what voltage is used is to have a look at the pins on the appliances in the same area. 120 volt has round pins on the plug socket. 240 volt systems have 3 flat blades with rounded ends set at 30 degrees to each other around the centre of the socket If you are in the US and have a residential 120/240 volt system and want to know if you should use 120 to ground or 240 volts phase to phase. You should check the voltage rating of the equipment you are wanting to use. Never exceed the voltage rating.
How many watts does a 3 amps use in America?
On a 120 volt supply, up to 360 watts. On a 240 volt supply, up to 720 watts.
How many amps in 6kW on a 240 volt supply?
A 6kw load on a 240volt circuit is 25amps.
Can you plug in a 240 volt equipment into 110 volt electric socket?
No, it won't get enough power and won't work.
Can you plug in a 110 volt tool straight into a 240 volt power supply?
no
Can you run a 208 volt single-phase computer off 240 volt power?
No. The 1-phase 240 setting on your computer's power supply is for the 240V wall outlets in other countries. The 240 outlets in your home are 2-phase 240.
Can you use a 120 volt power bar with 240 volts power supply?
No, but check the specification on the power bar to see what its maximum voltage rating is. There will be a bit of cord end cutting to get the right configuration for 240 volt equipment.
Can 110v circuit power 240v devices?
You need a step-up transformer, to go from 110 to 220-240 volts. Then a 110 volt supply can operate 240 volt equipment.
Can a 277 unit heater be supplied with 240 volts?
Absolutely not!! 277 volts is developed from a 480 volt power supply employing 1 conductor and a neutral. 240 volt power comprises two hot conductors and NO neutral.
Can you run a three phase appliance on 240 volt power supply?
No. You need a 3-phase supply that matches the voltage and current rating of your appliance.
What will happen if you run a 240 volt saw from a 110 volt supply?
It won't run.
Is a 220 volt electrical power wire the same as a 240 volt electrical power wire?
Yes 220 & 240 are considered the same.
Can you supply three 220 -240 volt 16.6 amp infrared heaters with one circuit?
Can you supply three 220 -240 volt 16.6 amp infrared heaters with one circuit?

Can you use 110 volt batteries charger here in Australia?
Not unless you have a 110 volt supply to plug it in to. The standard General Power Outlet in Australia is 240 volts AC at 50 Hertz.
What does 100 to 240 V mean for use in the UK?
If "100 to 240 V" is stated on the rating plate of a small electrical appliance, such as an electric razor or a plug-in power supply for something else, that means it is designed to operate on any voltage between 100 Volts and 240 volts. * So the appliance will work if it is plugged into a 120 Volt household AC power supply in the US, Canada or elsewhere in the world which uses a similar supply and * it will also work on a 230 Volt household AC power supply in the UK or any other country in Europe or elsewhere in the world which uses a similar supply.
