What else can I help you with?
Will a device designed for 110v work on 220v?
No, a device designed for 110v will not work on 220v without a voltage converter.
Can a device designed for 110v work on 220v?
No, a device designed for 110v cannot work on 220v without a voltage converter.
Did you burn up your motor if you plugged in 220V to a 110V?
Yes, although you might have lucked out and tripped the breaker first.
What is best to use 230volt or 110volt water pumps?
Either. Motor size or your available power local to the pump installation are the determining factors. If you have to use a large motor, 220v requires less amp draw on the circuit and allows a smaller wire than a large motor running 110v. If 110v is already there and you only need a small motor, run 110v.
How can I use a step-up transformer to convert 110v to 220v?
To convert 110v to 220v using a step-up transformer, connect the 110v input to the primary winding and the 220v output to the secondary winding of the transformer. The transformer will increase the voltage while maintaining the power output.
Can you attach an iron machine of 220v in a 110v socket?
No
Can you plug your 220V electric piano into a 110V socket?
No.
Which is better 220 versus 110 volts both with 20 amps?
At 20 amps the 220V will supply twice (2x) the power that the 110V will supply. The answer depends upon your meaning of the term 'better'. If you have a specific size load that you are supplying such as a motor that will accept either 220V or 110V then by using 220V you will have less of an impact from voltage drop and the conductor size will be smaller due to the current being 1/2 of the 110V. If by better you mean which one will give you the most power then the obvious answer is 220V.
Can you run a 60hz 110V motor on 50 hz 220V with a step down transformer?
NO dear we can not rotate a 110 vlolt motor on 220,but if your voltage is 110v then y can rotate it on 50hz ,no problem,but it will rotate at lower speed, ENGR. NASEER AHMED,PAKISTAN
Why 220v and 110v was chosen as standard voltage in Brazil and not some other voltage?
220v and 110v are almost the only voltages used around the world because they are the most efficient.
What happens when both 110v leads are applied to one side of a 220v electric motor?
The breaker will blow because you are effectively causing a short circuit.
Can you use the 220v 50hz appliances in 110v 60hz?
Depends. Some smaller stuff can usually run on both, in which case it will be printed on them. If it isn't, you can't run a 220v item on 110v.
