Is the power plug in Japan the same as in the US?
No, the power plug in Japan is different from the one in the US. Japan uses a two-prong plug with a voltage of 100 volts, while the US uses a three-prong plug with a voltage of 120 volts.
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.
What are advantages power supply in computer?
The power supply converts the high voltage (e.g. 120VAC in US, 240VAC in Europe) alternating current house electricity supply down to the various different low voltage direct current supplies needed by different devices that make up the computer. These low voltage direct current supplies are tightly regulated in the power supply circuitry to prevent transients in the house electric supply from perturbing the computer's electronics as well as to compensate for variations in power demand as the different devices that make up the computer operate.
What does 100 to 240 V mean for use in the UK?
If "100 to 240 V" is stated on the rating plate of a small electrical appliance, such as an electric razor or a plug-in power supply for something else, that means it is designed to operate on any voltage between 100 Volts and 240 volts. * So the appliance will work if it is plugged into a 120 Volt household AC power supply in the US, Canada or elsewhere in the world which uses a similar supply and * it will also work on a 230 Volt household AC power supply in the UK or any other country in Europe or elsewhere in the world which uses a similar supply.
Can you change a US power supply on a PC to a UK power supply?
Yes. Most Power supplies don't care what frequency they run off, so 50 or 60 is not an issue. If your power supply has a voltage select switch on it, then you are all set: When you plug in to 220v, slide the switch across to 220/240V. If not, then you will have to swap the power supply for one that does. If your system uses a standard ATX PSU, then it is simple and cheap. If it uses a custom smaller one, then they are more expensive. The power supply will have a compliance label on it that will specify what it can use. Check that for full details. Many notebook power supplies can use anything that is vaguely electricity-like. Rub them on your woolly jumper fast enough and they'll probably work. Again, check the label.
What voltage is the US Xbox 360 slim power supply Is it 100-127 volt like the previous 360s?
Ya....I just got one..
What should be the setting for a dual voltage selector switch on a power supply when using a computer in the US?
The 110VAC to 125VAC range (not the 220VAC to 250VAC range).
What should be the setting for a dual-voltage selector switch on a power supply when using a computer in the US?
The 110VAC to 125VAC range (not the 220VAC to 250VAC range).
Can you use a PC bought in the US in UK?
Check the back; if the power supply has a switch that lets you select the voltage the PC can be used either in the US or Europe. If it DOESN'T have the switch, read the manufacturers literature to see what's required. you may need to replace the power supply, depending on what you have.
How do you know if you have a 240 power supply or 120 power supply?
Some countries (Europe, Japan) use 120 volt systems. Australia uses 240 volt. One way of find out what voltage is used is to have a look at the pins on the appliances in the same area. 120 volt has round pins on the plug socket. 240 volt systems have 3 flat blades with rounded ends set at 30 degrees to each other around the centre of the socket If you are in the US and have a residential 120/240 volt system and want to know if you should use 120 to ground or 240 volts phase to phase. You should check the voltage rating of the equipment you are wanting to use. Never exceed the voltage rating.
What voltage power tools can you use in Mauritius?
Mauritius uses 230 V @ 50 Hz (the US and Canada are 120 V @ 60 Hz)
Is the river friend or enemy?
I think its a friend because they help us get more water faster and can be use as a power supply, like hydro electric power it uses the river to generate power.
