To convert single phase 230 to 460 volt, you would need a transformer that is rated at 460v and 230v respectively. It can be a step down or step up transformer. For 3 phase, you would need a 3 phase transformer.
The difference between 460 volts and 480 volts is 20 volts. They are not the same but all voltages have a nominal and a tolerance on each side of it. For example US household is 115 (or 117 or 118) nominal, and it can be between 110 and 120, or sometimes between 105 and 125 volts.
It is the same
If you half the voltage you double the current needed to run the device. Wattage is voltage times current
The only difference is the wire size you need. This will vary with the current draw of the device you are powering.
On 460 volt you can use a smaller gauge wire, so you might save some cost there but the electrical costs are the same.
40 volts!That's just the nominal voltage. Things run fine anywhere in that range. The power company promises to deliver in that range. Like 110 volts A.C. or 120vac. Any lower and things are dim and motors run hot. Any higher, and bulbs burn out prematurely, and possibly damage electronics like the TV. 220 to 240 is the next step up, and some things like air conditioners are fine with 208 volt (two legs of 120/208 three phase) or 240 volt, just draw a bit less current at 240 while drawing a few more watts, thus supplying a bit more power. Like the air conditioner would cool a bit more at 240.
460 volt has twice the electromagnetic force of 230V. It is a powerful voltage and quite unforgiving. If you're not trained to work with it, stay clear of it. No kidding.
You don't step up..... you only step down....
The difference is the voltage level. If you connect a device to 250 VAC while it was supposed to be connected to 115 VAC it will damage it. But not vice versa.
There in no quick and inexpensive way of doing this conversion. A transformer would have to be used and this type of winding is not common. 277 volts is the wye voltage of a three phase 480 volt system.
Yes, 220 volts is in the same voltage classification as 230 volts.
Yes, but a fact has to be taken into account that when a 230 volt rated bulb is used on a 120 volt system the wattage output is half of what the 230 volt bulb is rated at when it operates on 230 volt. So the dimmer will only be used to control half of the bulbs wattage which could bring the bulb down to a dull glow in full dimming position.
230
The classification of 230 volts is in the low voltage range.
Because its designed to operate at 230-460, not 120-208.
That is called an inverter.
230
If a precision voltage is needed from 200 to 230 an auto transformer could be used. If the load is a 230 volt motor to be operated on 200 then add 15% to the nameplate full load amperage for the calculation for overload protection.
Yes, you can use a 230 volt device on a 240 volt supply.
The only way to do that is with a transformer. They make inline transformers that convert 230 to 115 and they simply plug in inline.
460 / 2 is equal to 230.
230 + 230 = 460 = 4.6*102
460 x 0.5 = 230
The first five are: 2329, 4658, 6987, 9316, 11645.
no
Converting 9 volts to 230 volts would require a pretty hardcore step up transformer (Expensive) and you probably wouldn't have enough current to sustain the load.See discussion page for more information.
