How do you convert 12 volt trailer lights to 24 volts?

Change the trailer light bulbs to 24 volts and supply a 24 volt source to power them, in that order.


12v transformer which of the two wires from it do you use as live?

The transformer should have identification on it. The H1 and H2 terminals are for the primary side of the transformer that connect to the supply voltage. The secondary terminals will be identified as X1 and X2 and these connect to supply the load with a voltage that it needs. This identification is regardless of whether the transformer is a step up or step down type of configuration.The primary wires would attach to the outlet, while the secondary wires would attach to your device. If there are 3 secondary wires, that means they are center tapped, most likely at half voltage, and when you use the wire that's a different color from the rest with either of the other wires, you'd have 6 volt or whatever.It is common practice in DC appliances that attach to the outlet to use two half-wave rectifier circuits to produce full-wave DC at half voltage. So a 6 volt clock radio may contain a 12-volt, center-tapped transformer, and a large stereo might contain a 24-volt, center-tapped transformer.


How do you convert 230 volt to 12 volt?

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.


A transformer for a laptop computer converts a 120 volt input to 24 volt output show that the primary coil has fives times as many turns as the secondary coil has?

120-V to 24-V has a 5:1 ratio. 120/24=5. It's as simple as that.


How do you convert 24 volt trailer lights to 12 volt?

All you have to do is change the bulbs to 12 volts and supply the trailer with a 12 volt power source. If you leave the original 24 volt bulb in the trailer they will only glow at 1/2 of their rated wattage.

What is the amperage of a 40 va 240 volt by 24 volt control transformer?

The formula for amps is I = W/E. Amps = 40/240 = .17 primary amperage. For the secondary amperage I = W/E. Amps = 40/24 = 1.7 amps.

Why does your 24 volts transformer get hot then burn out?

A transformer gets hot if it is run at excessive voltage or excessive current. Either of those two would cause it to overheat. <<>> It sounds like the load on the secondary is greater that what the transformer can supply. A transformer is wound for a specific amperage output at a specific voltage. This is stated on the transformer as a VA or in larger transformers as KVA. If you divide the 24 volts into the VA listed on the transformer you will get the maximum amperage value of the transformer. If the device that you are connecting to the transformer is greater in amperage draw that what the transformer can supply, this will cause the heating effect and if left connected eventually burn the transformer out. A fuse should be installed in the secondary 24 volt output, rated at the maximum output of the transformer. This will limit the transformer to its manufacturer's recommended current output.

What do you mean by no load of transformer?

Transformers voltage ratings are typically at full load. For instance, A 24 VAC, 10A transformer will have a terminal voltage of 24 when it is feeding 10 amps to a load. Since the transformer windings have some resistance, the transformer designer has to wind the transformer to put out more than 24 volts, since some of the voltage will be lost, dropped across the resistance of the secondary windings. But, according to Ohm's law, the voltage dropped across a resistance is proportional to the current (E=IR). If we take away the 10A load, there is no current, and therefore no winding voltage drop! The excess voltage the designer built in now appears at the terminals. This is the no-load voltage. In my example above, when we remove the 10A load, the output voltage of the transformer might rise to 26.4V. We would say the no-load voltage of that transformer is 26.4V The ratio of full-load voltage to no-load voltage is called the transformer's "regulation factor". It is calculated as: (no-load voltage - full-load voltage) / full-load voltage * 100. Ours is: ((26.4 - 24) / 24) * 100 = 10%.
