What is the voltage supply used in flash lights?

Because a flash light is a portable piece of equipment, it operates on batteries. The power source is a DC voltage.


When you require dc source it is preferable to use a dc power supply instead of a battery why?

It depends on where the power source is needed. In portable equipment for starting engines or portable equipment like cordless saws, drills, or lights a battery is the preferred method of power. In indoor stationary charging equipment for portable phones for example a continuous supply of AC power being converted to DC is more convenient than have batteries around the home that have to be charged when running low on voltage.


What is the voltage of the power source for this model?

The power supply for the Sunpentown WA-1340DH Portable Air Conditioner/Heater Combo is 115V / 60Hz.


What type of power does a power supply convert to?

A power supply is generally only converting the mains voltage down to a lower voltage suitable for low voltage equipment. It turns 120 v into 18v or 12v or 5v or any other voltage it is specified for. In most countries outside US, we have 220 volt AC in the mains. Power is however power. One could say that Voltage is the speed of which the power run. A power supply generally slows down the speed of electricity. Regards.


How do you check that tools and equipment are configured correctly for the intended purpose?

When connecting any equipment to a power source always check the name plate on the equipment to see if the voltage supply matches the voltage that the equipment needs. I have been called in to find out why a piece of equipment has failed and many times the person that connected the equipment never checked the compatibility between the source and the equipment's requirement. It is a quick and easy thing to do but it is often overlooked.

What are the acceptable power ranges for 480 vac equipment?

All electrical equipment, regardless of the voltage, should have a voltage supply that is no more than plus or minus 5 per cent of the equipments stated voltage requirement.


How many feet away from overhead power lines should mechanical equipment be?

This depends on voltage level, line configuration, line height, loading, sensitivity of equipment, and on and on. The further away the better. Voltage can be induced on equipment near power lines, so I recommend grounding out your equipment as well as possible just in case.


What is the meaning of rated power frequency withstand voltage?

The r.m.s of sinusoidal power frequency voltage that the equipment can withstand during tests under specified conditions and for a specified time


What must you match when purchasing a power supply?

The equipments power requirements, and the mains voltage. The output of the power supply must be able to deliver the correct voltage to the equipment, at the appropriate wattage. Additionally, it should be capable of operating on the supplied mains voltage and wattage.


Why voltage is dangerous?

Because high voltage very often translates into high power, which will kill you, cause damage to equipment, start fires, etc.


What are temporary reductions in voltage called?

I will assume this is a question on AC power into a building. That is referred to as a brown out.


Where can you get a good portable generator?

The best portable generators are from ETQ (Eastern Tools & Equipment). They're gas-powered, efficient, cost-effective, and some of them generate enough power to run a house.
