Yes, you can. Here's why.
If a supply's output is rated at 12 volts DC (12 VDC) and 500 milliamperes (500mA), it can deliver a maximum of 500mA at the 12 volt rating. You want to use a 12VDC supply that is rated at 1A (1000mA). That means that the supply is capable of delivering up to 1A at 12VDC. Now the crux of the matter.
Your device, that's the load on the supply, needs 12VDC to operate. Your replacement supply is rated at 12VDC. No problem. Your supply delivered a max of 500mA. That does NOT mean that your load, that thing you're powering up, actually uses all 500mA. Your load knows how much current it needs to draw. Your supply has to be rated for more than that. Your supply was rated at 500mA. It worked well. The supply you wish to use will deliver a max of 1A (1000mA). It will easily supply the current your load will use. Oh, and the polarity of the new supply must be the same as that of the old one. That's pretty obvious. Always be safe and consult an electronics specialist for electrical questions. There are a number of savvy folks working at consumer electrical outlets who can get you up to speed.
What else can I help you with?
Can you use a 480VAC step down transformer and apply 120VAC to the primary?
In theory, you can. If you have a power transformer rated at 480 primary side and the secondary at say 120VAC, then the ratio is 4:1. Meaning that there are four times the number of turns on the primary side as to the secondary. So, if you were to power the primary side with 120VAC as opposed to 480VAC you would expect to see a 1/4 reduction in voltage output on the secondary, or 30VAC. The current would be dependant on the cross section of the secondary conductor and core construction. As current is increased thru the load (as in resistance welding) for example, you would expect voltage to decrease or lag, a larger Industrial sized transformer is able to compensate for this lag in voltage better than a compact household power transformer.
How many 120VAC single-phase output receptacles does a 25kW Power Distribution panel have?
If you are referring to the 25KW Power Distribution Panel used by the military, NSN: 6110-01-244-3209, there are four 120VAC, 20A circuit breakers and four corresponding twist lock receptacles.
Why the transformer connected on inverter output?
A transformer is connected to the output of inverter in order to step up the AC voltage output.
What is the difference between variable transformer and ordinary transformer?
Variable transformer may also refer as auto transformer. We can vary the output voltage of the transformer. But in the ordinary transformers output voltage is already designed.
Transformer with many output terminals?

What is the out put of Tesla coil in gw?
The Tesla Coil is used to produce fantastic high voltage long sparking displays. It takes the output from a 120vAC to a several kilovolt transformer and driver circuit and steps it up to an extremely high voltage. Voltages can get to be well above 1,000,000 volts and are discharged in the form of electrical arcs. Yours could be smaller depending on the size of the project.
What were Tesla coils replaced by?
The Tesla coil is one of Nikola Tesla's most famous inventions. It is essentially a high-frequency air-core transformer. It takes the output from a 120vAC to several kilovolt transformer & driver circuit and steps it up to an extremely high voltage. Voltages can get to be well above 1,000,000 volts and are discharged in the form of electrical arcs. Tesla himself got arcs up to 100,000,000 volts, but I don't think that has been duplicated by anybody else.
Can you convert 120vac 60Hz to 220vac 50Hz?
Yes, it is possible to convert 120VAC 60Hz to 220VAC 50Hz using a step-up transformer with the appropriate turns ratio. However, the conversion may require additional components such as frequency converters to accurately achieve the desired output. It is recommended to consult with an electrical engineer or expert for assistance in designing and implementing the conversion system.

What is a variable transformer?
A variable transformer is capable of changing its output voltage from 0 to maximum output or over a specific range. It is also named an adjustable transformer.
