The 300 volt insulation rating on wire is the maximum amount of voltage that can be applied to that wire. If your range falls within that range then it is safe to use. Some commercial ranges use 480 and 575 volts. For theses types of ranges the 300 volt wire will not do, it will have to be wire with a conductor whose insulation rating is 600 volts or greater.
It depends on what 277 volt device you are trying to connect.
No, not a good idea. You have to use a 347 volt ballast.
If you have two 6 volt batteries you can take a jumper wire and connect the negative post on one battery to the positive post on the other battery then connect the remaining pos and neg posts to the 12 volt battery charger.
When the wire shorted it probably burned through. You should employ a qualified electrician to help you troubleshoot the problem.
Change the cord/plug on the stove to a four wire cord/plug. When installing the new plug remove the grounding strip that connects the center lug in the stove wiring block to the frame of the stove. Connect the white wire from the new plug to the center lug. Connect the green wire from the plug to the stove frame.
Yes, this is a safe connection. A range is usually wire rated at 40 amps and the manufactures do not make a 40 amp rated receptacle. The code requires the next highest rated receptacle be used which is a 50 amp rating. This is why the range receptacle is rated at 50 amps. This receptacle is known as a 3 pole 4 wire grounding receptacle, 14-50R 125/250 volt. Black wire to terminal X, red wire to terminal Y, white wire to terminal W and ground wire to terminal G.
take the batt constant, and the acc. and connect them to the pos clip, and the neg. wire to the neg. clip
Any ground wire has to be connected to an independent ground wire that returns directly to the distribution panel and not to the neutral of the circuit.
To answer this question fully the type of appliance has to be stated and its voltage.
Yes, but know that when connected in series you will increase the voltage but the amps will stay the same as one battery. If you wire them in parallel you increase the amps but the voltage stays the same. Example: Connect two 12 volt batteries in series and you then have 24 volts with the same amperage as one battery. Connect two 12 volt batteries in parallel and you will have 12 volts but the amperage will double.
Connect three 12 volt batteries in series. You will triple the amperage but the volts will remain at 12. Click the link
The ampacity of a # 10 copper wire with an insulation factor of 90 degrees C is 30 amps. All wire voltage ratings usually drop into two categories 300 volts and 600 volts. Home wiring drops into the 300 volt range and commercial, industrial, drops into the 600 volt range.
