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.

IF YOU ARE NOT ALREADY SURE YOU CAN DO THIS JOB

How do you convert 115AC to 12DC?

With a AC to DC converter. You'd need to use a 115 AC to 12 volt DC converter. Connect the wires from the item you want to convert to the 12 volt positive and negative on the front of the converter. Plug the converter into a wall outlet and then turn on the switch on the converter. 115 is going into the converter but 12 volts is coming out and into the item you wanted converted.


How far from a laundry tub faucet should you install an electric dryer outlet?

There is no requirement on the distance the dryer must be from a sink. Any 120 volt outlet must be GFCI protected if it is within 6 feet of a sink. There is no requirement for a 240 volt dryer outlet. I would not want the dryer right next to the sink and I would want the dryer to be on a 4 wire circuit and not a 3 wire circuit. Use common sense here.


what kind of voltage converter do I Need To Run A Clothes Dryer When I Just Have Standard 110 voltage In My Home ?

A step down converter will convert the voltage from 220/230 volts to 110 volts. Converters are labeled to display their capabilities, such as "110V to 220V Converter". Read the instruction manual for your Clothes Dryer and sketch the plug. You'll want to know the voltage of the clothes dryer --- it'll likely be 220 V. You need to visit a major appliance dealer and ask to buy a step down converter after discussing the plug type and voltage found in the owner's manual.

How do you convert a German 220 volt chandelier to USA 110 volt?

If you want mood lighting just connect it as is, the brightness of the bulbs will be half. If you want full brightness change the bulbs to 120 volt with bulbs of the same wattage as the 220 volt bulbs.

Will wiring 2 batteries in series hurt your boat?

Depends on the battery size. If your boat is a 12 volt system and you wire two 12 volt batteries in series you then have 24 volts. If the batteries are 6 volt batteries you will be fine. If you have a 12 volt system on your boat and want to use two batteries then wire two 12 volt batteries in parallel. You will still have 12 volts but will have double the amperage available and this will extend the running time of the batteries.

How do you get 12 volt output from 24 volt battery circuit?

I'm assuming you want dual batteries for increase amps /hour off road use.If you want to get 12 volts out of 2- 12 volt batteries you will be wiring them in parallel. Wiring batteries in "Parallel" increases there combined Amp/hour capacity, but their voltage stays the same. Battery 1 Positive, to Battery 2 Positive, and Battery 1 Negative to Battery 2 Negative is Parallel wiring, retaining the voltage rating of either one of the batteries. I suggest adding a "Battery Cut-Off Switch" in the circuit.Try doing it outside your vehicle and use a multimeter set to DC volts and test for 12-16 volts (higher readings would require it be on a charging system).If you do this wrong and do not test it first YOU MAY FRY your vehicles wiring system by overloading the 12 volt system by running 24 volts through it.


How long should you charger a 7.2 battery with a 9.6 volt charger?

Washer Dryer Combo?

At last. A 2 in 1 washer and dryer combined. The washer turns into a dryer! No need to transfer clothes from washer to dryer. GE claims to complete a full cycle in 2 hours. There is no need to vent the dryer. The moisture from the clothes goes down the drain instead of an exhaust hose. A 2 in 1 washer/dryer is not new technology. The idea has been around for years but never sold. It wasn’t practical to own one. They didn’t wash or dry very well and a load would take 5 or more hours. These units were popular in Europe because space was very important. This is the first “practical“ 2 in 1 combo that really works well GE claims.


How do you connect a volt meter to a car?

It depends on what you want to monitor. Most commonly the volt meter is connected in parallel with the battery or the alternator.
