Can a 220 volt lamp be converted to 110 volts without replacing the wiring?
Yes, lamp cord is rated in the 300 volt wire classification. This means that the cord is approved for use up to a maximum of 300 volts.
Can you use a 12v 60hz 210 va power cord to replace a 120v 60hz 150w cord?
No, it has to do with the insulation rating of the individual cords. 12 volts can be used on a voltage rating of 120 volts. But 120 volts can not be used on a 12 volt rated cord. As a point of interest most power cords have an insulation rating of 300 volts.
What is correct extension cord amp load for a 5500 volt generator?
Extension cords are not used at 5500 volts.
Can a 300V cord be use for a 120V appliance on a 220V outlet?
The voltage rating of the cord is actually an insulation rating of the wire in the cord set. Your cord has a maximum voltage rating of 300 volts or less. The other standard maximum voltage cord ratings are 600 volts and 1000 volts. 480 volts would drop into the category of 600 volts or less.
Can a plug a 125 volts extension cord in a 220 volt outlet to be used as a extension to plug 220 volts light amperage accessories?
No, the 220 v and 110 v systems are designed to use a different pin layout for the plugs and sockets, to avoid possibly dangerous cross-connections. The two voltages can not be mixed and equipment for one system cannot be used on the other without a transformer.

Can you use a 12 volt rated cord to power a 5 volt item?
no

Can a 125 volt cable power a 120 volt piece of equipment?
The first thing we have to do is clarify the question. A cable rating of 125 volts is an insulation rating of the wire. Like wire with ratings of 300 volts, 600 volts and 1000 volts these are the highest allowable voltages that can be applied. A wire that is rated for 300 volts is good for 120 volts, 240 volts and 277 volts. At test research facilities, equipment is tested to destruction. The label that is given to wire as a result of the tests is the highest safest voltages that can be applied to that particular wire. So when you see a wire that has a label stating that it is rated for 300 volts it means that any voltage under and up to 300 volts is safe to apply. So to answer the question yes, the 125 volt insulation rating on the cable can be used to supply a source of 120 volts to a 120 volt rated piece of equipment.
Can you use a 130 volt light bulb on a 120 volt supply?
Yes, in fact that is what a rough service bulb is rated at. The bulb used on a 120 volt system will have a reduced wattage output as to what it would be on 130 volts.
What is the difference in 30 amp 250 volt and 30 amp 600 volt?
Devices are rated by voltage and amperage. If you have a source rated for 600 volts you can use a 250 volt device, but not vice versa.
Fuse to protect 110 volt from 220 volt?
There is no such thing as fuses are rated in amps, not volts. a 10 amp fuse will protect against anything over 10 amps regardless of the voltage used.
What unit would be used to measure the potential difference between two poles of a battery?
The volt.The volt.The volt.The volt.
Can you replace a 10 amp 125 volt extension cord with a 10 amp 250 volt extension cord?
Yes the rated voltage is a maximum. A 250 v cord might be slightly thicker than one for 125 v. <<>> The voltage rating of an electrical extension cord is the insulation factor of the cord. These cords come in two insulation ratings, 300 volts and 600 volts. If the voltage rating is within the parameters of the cord maximums then it is safe to use it on that voltage. The amperage of the cord is based on the wire size of the cord's conductor. The rating of 10 amps will fall within the #14 cord size. Remember the longer the cord the larger the wire size should be to prevent voltage drop at the connected load end.
