You have to find Line 1 and Line 2 to get your 240 volts. Both do not exist in a 115vac panel. If coming from a main panel, you would install a 60amp 2 pole breaker and then run heavier wire to the a/c unit. A sub-panel could be added if no spaces are left tin the main panel.

What are the steps in connecting 120V to a 240V 60A air condition panel?

you should have three wires into the panel. two of them go to the double breakers or pull switch and the last is the ground lead. You can pick up 110 vac from one side of either breaker and that ground connection. DO NOT connect to the both breaker wires as that will be 220 vac


Why does my 120v 24v reduce to 28v. when you connect it to your boiler it blows out the transformer. is a problem with the transformer or the panel?

Please go to discuss question page.


Can you feed a 208v 200amp panel from 480v 20amp circuit?

Not directly, you would need to transform 480v circuit to 120v with a transformer first.


How do you wire a 15 amp 120V breaker in a 240v 30 amp breaker panel?

Look to see if the 30 amp panel is fed with a two wire or a three wire. If it is a two wire then you are out of luck. If the panel is fed with a three wire then the panel should have the neutral terminated in the panel. It is this neutral that you need for 120 volt connections. You didn't state how many panel slots there are in the panel. If you are able install a 15 amp breaker into the panel and connect the wires going to the load. The black wire will go to the breaker and the white wire will go to the neutral bar in the panel.


A system has 220v ac L and neutral can be possible two hot leg 120v ac be used?

yes, but the two 120v legs would have to come from breakers that are on the two different bus bars in the panel box, otherwise, you will get zero voltage between the two hot wires and 120 volts to neutral.


Can GFCI circuit breaker handle a 240V circuit with a 120V circuit sub-paneled off if it?

I don't know if you are trying to ask if you can run a 240V panel off a GFCI or run a 120 V sub panel off of a GFCI. Can you clarify please,,,Thanks


How can voltage increase to 240V when only 120V is coming from the breaker box?

That could only happen if the neutral wire (white) becomes disconnected at either the panel, the meter base or the transformer.


Why do white wire mark 120v?

Because the white wire on a 120 volt circuit is the neutral wire that is connected to the silver screw on outlets and switches. It is connected to the neutral bar in the service panel.


Can you use a 30 amp disconnect switch for a 30 kva transformer?

im have a 30 kva transformer 3 phase 480v 80 amp panel 120v what size disconnect should I use


What does a transformer between utility wires and your house do?

The transformer steps down the voltage from 600kilo volts which is what is at the power pole/lines to multiple strands of 120v or hot wires which is what your house runs off of.


Can you run your neon sign of 120v 50hz 60hz 0.6a 7.5kv 30mA in an Australian 240v power outlet?

No. The neon sign is fed by a step-up transformer. Primary side 120V, secondary side 7500V. If you applied 240 to the primary side you would get 15000 volts on the neon tube. A flash over and then nothing. If you can find a transformer from 120V to 240V or 240V to 120V then you are good to go. Connect 240V to 240V side and you will get 120V out the other, connect the 120V side to the neon sign and you should have light. Transformer should be at least 100va. This will give you an output of .83 amps at 120V


Example of electric potential?

120v
