What current will a 100w electric fan motor draw when you plug it into a 240v wall socket?
To calculate the current drawn by the 100W electric fan motor when plugged into a 240V socket, you can use the formula: Current (A) = Power (W) / Voltage (V). Therefore, Current = 100W / 240V = 0.42 Amperes. So, the motor will draw approximately 0.42A of current.
What problems will you have if you run a 110v appliance on a 240v circuit?
it wouldn't work long it would keep popping breaker and possible to cause a fire if keep reseting the breaker 110v would not be enough to power 220v. It wouldn't harm the appliance but it will not keep popping breakers. However, plugging 110v equipment into 220v outlets will destroy the appliance. You can cause damage to the equipment, at least if there is a motor in it. The 110v will be insufficient to turn the motor, so the current passing through it will remain at the level of the startup surge (ever notice how the lights in your house dim slightly when the air conditioner compressor kicks on?). For a short duration, like a normal startup, this surge will not do any harm, but if that much current is allowed to continue coursing through the coils, they will quickly overheat. Never let the smoke out of the motor!
WIll sump motor blow if I connect 240V?
It may not blow, but it will turn twice as fast and burn out very quickly. It is meant for 110 only. Check the sump pump. Some of them can be wired either 120v or 240v. If yours is like that, just wire the motor for 240v and plug it in.
Does a 31watt 240v motor draw 0.13 amps?
No, a 31-watt motor operating at 240 volts would draw approximately 0.13 amps. This calculation is done using the formula P = IV, where P is power (31 watts), I is current (amps), and V is voltage (240 volts).
What would cause light sockets to read 130V in a 240V system when the light switch is off?
More than likely, your 240V system has branches that supply a standard household 120V to things like lighting outlets. Most light bulbs in the US run on 120V so this is probably a convenience feature. Otherwise you would have to go to a specialty store and buy 240V bulbs.
How do you determine the proper cable for 240V 3phase 15hp induction motor for a distance of 1000 ft?
This wouldn't be on a farm would it? 1000' line would need it's own utility pole, and transformer.
How many output amps is a 600kva generator at 240v?
To calculate the output amps of a 600kVA generator at 240V, you would use the formula Amps = kVA / Volts. In this case, it would be 600kVA / 240V = 2500 amps.
What is the amps for a 2.5hp 240v cont motor draw.?
Presuming single phase and 1500 rpm. Normal running current would nearly 10 Amps but varies considerably. A real cheap one running at 3000/3600 rpm could exceed 12 amps. At 240 volt, all should be run off 15 Amp line.
What would the control voltage be for a transformer marked 240v 24vac?
A control transformer marked 240V - 24Vac would have a control voltage of 24 volts.
How do you wire 240V to 120V?
What specifically are you wiring? A light bulb would operate dim, a motor will burn up. The current increases thereby requiring larger wire and current protection.
What wattage 12 volt inverter do you need to drive a 240 volt quarter horsepower pump motor?
You need to find the wattage of the pump motor. This is found by multiplying the voltage of the motor by the amperage of the motor. Once you have this figure use it to find an inverter that can handle this wattage load at a 240 volt output.
What size wire and breaker for a 7.5 hp motor?
For a 7.5 hp motor operating at 240V, you would typically use a 14-gauge wire and a 40 amp breaker. However, it is best to consult the motor's specifications and the National Electrical Code to determine the exact wire size and breaker needed for your specific setup.
