It would make no difference except in a clock which relies on a synchronous motor to make the hands turn at the right speed. The clock would lose 48 minutes per day.

Its function is to supply electrical power via a plug that is plugged into it to supply an appliance.


How electricity is moved from an outlet to appliance?

An Outlet has two nodes, one is positive and one is negative. You will not feel anything to a negative node and it is for receiving the supply of electricity released from positive node. As you connect a appliance to outlet the electricity has to pass through out that appliance to reach to the negative node.


What is the negative effect if 50 hertz appliance is plugged to 60 hertz power supply.?

It will run slower. For instance, a clock will run ten minutes slow every hour. A washing machine will take longer to run it's cycle. A dryer will not get as warm and will take longer to dry clothes. Now, having said that, most disc players and record players use a motor that uses a different operating system and are not affected.


What causes too much current in a 220 outlet?

The fuse is what restricts how much current you can draw from an outlet. If you have the wrong fuse you can draw more power than intended from an outlet - but only if the appliance plugged in can use it up. To get too much power out of an outlet, with a suitable appliance plugged in, then you also have to have a higher voltage in the outlet. And for that to happen, something has to be seriously wrong higher upp in the supply chain.


Can you run a three phase appliance on 240 volt power supply?

No. You need a 3-phase supply that matches the voltage and current rating of your appliance.


What would happen if 12 volt only appliance was plugged into 120 volt outlet?

If a 12 volt appliance is connected to a 120 volt outlet, it would likely get damaged due to the excessive voltage. The appliance is designed to run on 12 volts, so the higher voltage could overwhelm and fry its electrical components. It's important to always match the voltage requirements of an appliance with the electrical supply to prevent damage.


Which would you use for a 250W appliance and why?

I would use a 300W power supply for a 250W appliance. It's recommended to have a power supply that can handle more than the actual wattage of the appliance to ensure efficient operation and prevent overloading. In this case, a 300W power supply would provide enough headroom to safely power the 250W appliance.


What impact will a negative supply shock have on the main measures of economic performance?

A negative supply shock shifts the aggregate supply curve to the left and raises overall prices. This has a negative effect on GDP. This is shown via the expenditure approach to GDP, as rising costs will reduce personal consumption and net exports.


What is the effect of good earthing on power supply?

Good earthing ensures that should a short takes place in an electrical appliance, any charge is sent safely to earth.

What is the function of a electric socket?

It allows you to disconnect the load without having to unplug the flexible cable.


What does 100 to 240 V mean for use in the UK?

If "100 to 240 V" is stated on the rating plate of a small electrical appliance, such as an electric razor or a plug-in power supply for something else, that means it is designed to operate on any voltage between 100 Volts and 240 volts. * So the appliance will work if it is plugged into a 120 Volt household AC power supply in the US, Canada or elsewhere in the world which uses a similar supply and * it will also work on a 230 Volt household AC power supply in the UK or any other country in Europe or elsewhere in the world which uses a similar supply.
