Do you replace the coil from a 6 volt to a 12 volt when converting from 6 volt to a 12 volt system?

Yes, when converting from a 6-volt system to a 12-volt system in a vehicle, you typically need to replace the coil with one that is compatible with 12 volts. This is because a coil designed for a 6-volt system may not be able to handle the higher voltage and could lead to issues with the ignition system.


What size wire for 250 foot extension cord to run a 120 Volt 8 amp electric tree trimmer?

For a 5% volt drop of 6 volts the total resistance should be less than 6/8 ohms, 0.75 ohms, which for a total wire run of 500 ft is equivalent to 1.5 ohms per 1000 ft. Wire tables show that a #10 cable should be used. A #12 cable would give a volt drop of 5.3% which would probably be acceptable for occasional use and easier to store.


What will consume more wattage - a 110 volt appliance drawing 10 amps or a 220 volt appliance drawing 8 amps?

The equation for wattage is W = A x V. Substitute your values into this equation and you will have your answer.


What is the largest wire that will fit in a 40 amp breaker?

You should not use any wire smaller than 8 AWG COPPER in a 40 amp breaker. If you have any questions about your application, you should contact a local electrical contractor for your own safety.


Is a fuse rated 8 volt 25 amps equal to a 8 volt 250 mp fuse?

No, a 250-Amp fuse would be much larger than a 25-amp fuse. A fuse is generally designed to have a thermal runaway and melt the connection when there is too much current for too long.
