Can an air conditioner unit running on 250 volts be run directly by 120 volts?

No, the unit has to operate on the voltage specified. The internal controls are all designed to operate on a 240 volt input. The motor in the air conditioner will not operate at the lower voltage and without this compressor motor operating the unit will not get cold.


How many pole breaker for air condition?

If the power requirement is 120 volts it will be connected to a single pole breaker rated at the amperage requirement of the air conditioner. If the voltage of the air conditioner is 240 volts, then a two pole breaker will be required.

Why does your air conditioner have two breakers?

Answer for USA, Canada and countries running a 60 Hertz supply service.The use of two breakers supplies a voltage of 240 volts. These two breakers should be common ties together with a single handle. Your air conditioner must operate on 240 volts. To verify this check the nameplate on the unit for the voltage.

How different is the horsepower used by an air conditioner unit if it runs on either single phase or three phase ac?

There is no difference in horsepower. The manufacturer builds the air conditioner. Engineers calculate and tell the manufacturer how much power is going to be required to make it operate. Smaller units will probably use lower voltage with lower horsepower to operate efficiently. The bigger the unit will take higher horsepower to operate. There comes a point when single phase, low voltage use will not work due to the unavailability of high horsepower, low voltage motors. At this point three phase systems are used with higher voltages to operate the motors. Examples of a 10 HP motor at different voltages. Single phase - 115 volts 100 amps, 230 volts 50 amps. Three phase same HP - 200 volts 32.2, 230 volts 28, 460 volts 14 and 575 volts 11 amps. As you can see if the air conditioner needs a 10 HP motor at single phase 115 volts, a feeder supply of 100 amps would be needed. This compared to the same air conditioner using a three phase 575 volt system which draws 11 amps.

Does air conditioner blow cold air at 110volts 0r 220volts?

It blows air at how many volts it was designed for... an automotive unit will be 12 volts, heavy equipment uses 24 volts, a window unit in N. America will run 110 volts, while 220 and 440 volt systems are typically heavier household and industrial units.
