Depending on what you're trying to charge, if it doesn't require too much power, you might want to look into a 220 to 110 volt `stepdown' transformer. What? I want to raise the voltage, not lower it! Ok, so use the transformer in reverse. All of a sudden, 110 volts in, will give you 220 volts out. Just make sure the transformer has enough current carrying capacity to handle the load.
An electrical supply outlet should be able to help you get what you need.

∙ 15y agoYes 2 100v circuts can be created from 1 220 v circut. A 220v circut consists of 2 110v ones that are 180 degrees out of phase. So when one phase is max 110 positive the other is max 110 v negative. The total difference is 220 volts. If a neutral connection is added then the voltage between the neutral and either one of the hot connections is 110 v. I'm not giving any instructions on wiring because I think that if you are asking this question then your knowlege is basic and should have some help from someone who is more experienced. 220v is more dangerous to work with and also this will probably mean connections to the main breaker box. Please make sure you know what you are doing before proceding.

∙ 12y agoIf it is a straight 220 volt circuit with no neutral, then a step down transformer will have to be utilized.

∙ 10y agoOne of the wires has come loose at the outlet or in the service panel, or if your service panel has fuses one of the fuses on the 220 volt circuit may be blown.

Is France 110 volt or 220 volt?
France uses 220-240 volts for their electrical system.
How will a 3 phase panel give you 110 volts and 220 volts?
A three phase panel will not give you 110 and 220 volts. A three phase four wire panel will, but not at these voltages. The nearest voltages will be 120 and 208 volts. The 120 volt is the wye voltage of 208 volts. 208/1.73 = 120 volts. A single phase three wire panel will give you 110 and 220 volts.
How do you wire a 220v dryer to run on 110?
You can't. A 220 volt dryer requires 220 volts in order to operate properly. It will not run on 110 volts.
Can you run 110 and 220 volt circuits in the same conduit?
Yes, 120 and 240 volts can be run in the same conduit.
How can you determine if you have 110 or 220 volts?
Most residential service in USA has both. In the USA 110 to 120 volts is a given and it would be very unusual not to have 220 to 240 volts. It can be easily tested at main panel with a volt meter. Or as an alternative call your power company.
Can 110 volt apliance work on 220 volts circuit?
NO - that is dangerous.
How do you wire 220 volt from 2 110 volt lines. you have a concessions stand that is wired for 220 but everywhere you have been lately just keeps giving you 2 - 110 volt line?
If you combine two 110 volt power lines it does not give you 220 volts, the voltage will be the same. The only way to turn 110 volts into 220 volts is with a step-up transformer.
Can 110v circuit power 240v devices?
You need a step-up transformer, to go from 110 to 220-240 volts. Then a 110 volt supply can operate 240 volt equipment.
Is France 110 volt or 220 volt?
France uses 220-240 volts for their electrical system.
Are electric blankets 110 volt and 220 volt or just 110?
Typically they are either 220V or 110 volts not both. Plugging a 11o volt blanket to a 220 volt line has a huge risk of fire.
Can you operate a 208 volt on 110 volt?
The United States is one of the only places in the world that uses 110 volts instead 220 volts. In order to operate 208 volts on a 110 volt electrical current, you will need a voltage converter.
Why does 220 volt line put out 250 volts?
A 220 volt line may put out 250 volts because this specification features voltage that varies between 220 and 250 volts. In other countries, the electricity varies in voltage between 110-120 volts.
How do you rewire a 110 volt HID Magnetic coil ballast to use 220 volt?
Unless the ballast is a multi tap primary you can not rewire it for 220 volts.
Can I use 110 volt led light on 220 volts?
Yes. 110 and 220 plugs are different so that you cannot plug a 110 recepticle into a 220 outlet and vice versa. If a home is wired for 220 it means that the potential is there for 220 recepticles. Your oven and clothes dryer require 220.
Can 110 Wii will work on 22o volts?
Plugging it into a 220 volt socket will probably destroy it.
Is there an adapter that will make a 110 volt refrigerator receptacle into a 220 volt?
No. You need to rewire the circuit from the electric panel.
How do you convert a 110 volt chandelier to 220 volt?
you don't. you just take and use 120 volts from the 220. At least that's what I'd do.
