Why is your central air not blowing?
mutistranded 6mm wires 16amp rcb
How do you check the capacitor fitted to the side of your 230 volt electric motor running your hayward super pump.motor is blowing the 16amp mcb?
Have a certified repairman save your life by looking at it for you.
Can you plug a 240V 15amp 2KW machine directly into a 240V 16amp 3.8KW generator?
Yes and no - If the machine has a high starting torque, the generator may not start it. A compressor is high a water pump may be low.
Is a 16amp fuse ok for water heater?
I've never heard of a 16 amp fuse. -I guess it depends where you are. In north America, 15, 20 and 30 amp fuses are common, 40 are also used less commonly. A typical north American water heater uses 2 x 30 amp fuses or breakers. Please write in with detail of WHERE you are in questions like this.
1970 vw Beetle fuse types?
Red (16Amp) and white (8Amp) in order from left to right R-W-W-W-R-W-W-W-W-W the fuses in a 1970 vw beetle are a "bullet" type ceramic open fuse. meaning that no glass or vaccume tube is used. although very un-efficient it is a simple cheap design using a one piece metal connector carries the current through the fuse in the open air, and going from the top to the bottom of the fuse is caps both ends of the ceramic "bullet" to get a good connection, comes in all amperage sizes and colors
Can you change the 32amp 240v socket to a 16amp socket on your generator?
No! The 32 amp rating is slightly more than the circuit that supplies it can handle in continuous power supplied, therefore if you replace it with a socket that has a smaller amperage rating (16) you will have the potential to draw through the new socket more (32) amps than it was rated for and thus have a component failure and possible electrocution hazard. The 16 amp socket will physically work but you and anyone who will use the generator in the future MUST ensure that no more than 16 amps are drawn through the socket . I recommend that a like in kind replacement , 32 amps for 32 amps so the full 32 amp supply can be used safely. my opinion.
Can I plug a 63 amp 3 phase lead coming from a 30 kva generator into a 125 amp 3 phase inlet on a distribution board. The distro has 6 x 16 amp single phase outputs and 6 x 32 amp single phase outputs?
Depending on the distro... you need to limit the output per phase. You can use 2 16amp and 1 32 amp per phase.Yes, IF the generator has overcurrent protection and each circuit on your distro is individually protected as well (most are). You will not be able to load the distro to it's full capacity of 125 amps (obviously), you will be limited by the genny's rated output.As always, if you are in doubt about what to do, the best advice anyone should give you is to call a licensed electrician to advise what work is needed.If you do this work yourself, always turn off the powerat the breaker box/fuse panel BEFORE you attempt to do any work ANDalways use an electrician's test meter having metal-tipped probes(not a simple proximity voltage indicator)to insure the circuit is, in fact, de-energized.IF YOU ARE NOT ALREADY SURE YOU CAN DO THIS JOBSAFELY AND COMPETENTLYREFER THIS WORK TO QUALIFIED PROFESSIONALS.
