Measure the width and thickness of the strip. Multiply them together to find the cross-section area, and treat it as normal wire of the same cross-section area.

For example, 10 mm x 1 mm strip would be used like 10 sq. mm cable.

How do you drop 24dc to 12 dc i want to install a strip of flexible LED lights in a vending machine and can only find them in 12v dc but only have a 24v dc power supply on the machine?

Buy two strips and install them in series. Measure the current through one strip at 12 volts. Divide 12 by that current to get ohms. Install a resistor of that resistance in series with the strip. Calculate the required power by multiplying 12 by the current, and make sure the resistor can handle that amount of power.


What is the problem in using a strip of metal or any other piece of wire in place of a fuse?

The fuse is made to blow at a set amperage to protect the wire from overheating. Using anything but the fuse may cause the circuit to work but could most certainly cause the wiring to overheat and burn if it is overloaded.


How do you calculate the maximum input current at 120VRMS for an Avalon VT-737SP channel strip?

To calculate the maximum input current for an Avalon VT-737SP channel strip at 120 VRMS, you first need to determine the input impedance of the device, which is typically around 10 kΩ. Using Ohm's Law (I = V/R), you would divide the voltage (120 VRMS) by the impedance (10,000 ohms). This gives you a maximum input current of approximately 0.012 A, or 12 mA. Always refer to the specific device's manual for exact specifications and ensure safe operating conditions.


Why put earthed strip between a circuit and the circuit board?

An earthed strip is a low resistance strip. as we know that a current always flows along a path which is having the least resistance.Whenever a fault current flows through the circuit and a possiblity is there that it may damage the ckt & ckt board the earth strip allows the fault current to flow through it and ground it. thereby preventing the damage.


A device that contains a thin strip of metal that will melt if there is too much current through it?

A fuse has a metal strip that melts and opens a circuit if the current becomes too great.

If I want to know the amperage for each outlet on a power strip can I simply divide the total amps by the number of outlets?

If you want to know the amperage for each outlet on a power strip then check the nameplate current on the device that is plugged into that outlet on the power strip. Power strips usually have their own breaker that will trip at 15 amps. If you load the strip to its maximum capacity there is a good chance that it will trip before the distribution circuit breaker will trip. You can not simply divide the total amps by the number of outlets as each device will have a different amperage and depending on where it is plugged into the strip these amperage's in a set position will change.


The electric light incredible as it may appear is produced from a tiny strip of paper that breath would blow away Through this tiny strip of a paper is passed an electric current and the result?

The electric light is produced by passing an electric current through a tiny strip of paper coated with a light-emitting material. When the current flows through the strip, it excites the material, causing it to emit light. This process of converting electrical energy into light is how electric lights work.


How many amps does 30KW strip heater draw at 208 volts 3PH?

Assuming it is a 208-volt line voltage (as normal in 3-phase) the phase voltage is that divided by sqrt(3), or 120 volts. Each phase has to supply 10 kW so the current on each phase is 83.3 amps.


Where do you normally use a reinforced wide strip concrete foundation?

A reinforced wide strip concrete foundation is used if the soil is soft or is of a low bearing capacity. This would not work for heavy or clumpy soil.
