If it is AC then you don't need a formula, you just need a transformer.

What is the amperage for a 20000 volt-amp heating unit on a 240 volt single phase circuit?

Volt amps is the same way of saying watts. This is seen in the formula Watts = Volts x Amps. Using the formula I = W/E we transpose I = 20000/240 = 83.33 amps.


7200 volt 25kw transformer how many amps at 240 single phase?

The formula you are looking for is I = W/E. Amps = Watts/Volts.


If a single phase 240 Volt ac is applied to a full wave bridge rectifier. what will be the resultant dc voltage?

A: the rms value will be169 volts add a capacitor and no load 240 volts and the average will be 153 volts


What is a 208 circuit?

The 208 volt configuration is one phase of a three phase source at 240 volts, where the 208 volt circuit is connected between the center tap of one 240 volt phase (usually a grounded neutral, in the style of a standard 120/240 split phase system) and the high delta connection on either of the other two phases. 208 circuit would consist of two phases of a 208 volt wye system or could be all three phases. The voltage between conductors would be 208 volts. The voltage to ground from any phase would be 120 volts. A 240 volt delta system would give you a high leg to ground, somewhere around 190 volts and the other two would be 120 volts to ground.

How do you convert 240 volts to 1.5 volts?

There are several ways to convert a 240 volt input to a 1.5 volt output. If the 240 volt input is alternating current (AC), a simple transformer can reduce the 240 volts to 1.5 volts (AC). A properly configured resistor or impedance coil in series with the input and output would also do the job but a tansformer also serves to isolate the output from the input offering greater protection for the 1.5 volt device. You If 1.5 volts direct current (DC) is required, a rectifier circuit is needed after the 1.5 volt AC output. If the source is 240 volts (DC), A resistance circuit in series can reduce the output voltage. You can also use electronic circuitry to chop of the 1.5 volts.

5000 watts at 240 volt will draw how many amps?

To find amps if watts and volts are known, use the formula; watts / volts = amps or 5000 / 240 = 20.83 amps

Can you use 240 volt 3 phase to run a machine that is 240 volt single phase?

Yes, if the motor is rated 240 volts 3 phase.There is such a thing as 240 volt 3 phase power.However if you are asking if you can use 240 volts single phase on a three phase motor, then the answer is no.


How do you convert your 110 volt neon sign to run off 240 volt UK socket?

What you will need is a 240 to 120 step down transformer. An adapter might work but it depends on what the current draw of the neon sign is at 120 volts.


How do you convert 230 volts to 12 volt system?

With a Step Down transformer. But you will probably have a hard time finding a 240 volt unit. 120 volts units are readily available. <<>> It depends on how big of a transformer that you are looking for. There are many control transformers in the 50 to 500 VA range that have dual primary and dual secondary. The primary side can be connected to 240 volt or 120 volt and the secondary can be connected for either 12 or 24 volts.
