How do you convert a 12-0-12 volt transformer to 16-0 volts transformer?

You can not convert the transformer without cutting the secondary windings. The secondary winding is a split secondary that is wound that way from the manufacturer. To accomplish what you asked would entail unwinding each side of the 12 volt winding half way. At this point solder a pigtail out to a terminal block. This would be your 6 volt tap. Then the coil would have to be rewound to its original state as before the unwind. This same procedure will then be done to the other side of the secondary. Done as a project, maybe, workable within ones capabilities, no.


What is the formula to convert 240 volt to 12 volts?

If it is AC then you don't need a formula, you just need a transformer.


Can you run a 12 volt ac water pump with a 12 volt dc adapter?

No. You need 12 volt AC to run a 12 volt AC motor, not 12 volt DC.


A DVOM is set to the 400 V range If a 12 volt source is measured what will be the meter display?

12 volt


What is the efficiency of a 240 volt single phase 3 horse power motor which draws 12 amps under full load?

This might be a homework question, in which case you find the power, which is 3 x 746 watts, and divide by the voltage to find the current taken if the efficiency is 100%, and that is 9.325 amps. So the efficiency is 9.325/12 or 77.7%. In practice the question is complicated by the power factor of the motor, which means that the watts taken are less than the volts times amps. The power factor could well be 0.777, in which case the efficiency would be 100%.

Is a 1940 Chrysler 12 volt or 6 volt?

If that 1940 Chrysler is in original condition, it would have a 6 volt system. Originally, it was a 6-volt. However, many people convert them to 12-volt systems for convenience purposes.


How do you convert 12 volt to 24 volt?

Use a voltage devider or a transformer.

How do you convert 24 volt trailer lights to 12 volt?

To convert 24 volt trailer lights to 12 volt, you will need to install a voltage regulator or resistor in the circuit to reduce the voltage to 12 volts. Alternatively, you can also replace the 24 volt lights with 12 volt lights designed for trailers.

How many watt of 220 volt will get by convering inverter from 200 Watt 12 volt?

Probably about 180 watts, assuming 90% efficiency.


Will your 60 watt solar panal light up a 12 volts bulb without inventor?

No, a 60-watt solar panel generates DC electricity, which is not compatible with a standard 12V AC bulb. You would need a DC bulb specifically designed for use with a solar panel or an inverter to convert the DC power to AC power for the bulb to light up.


Is there a way for coverting amps into watts in a 12 volt applacation?

To convert amps to watts in a 12-volt application, you can use the formula: Watts = Volts x Amps. Therefore, in a 12-volt circuit, if you have 1 amp of current, the power consumption would be 12 watts (12V x 1A).


What would one use a 12 volt battery for?

On would use a 12 volt battery for a lot of things. For example, a lot of Fisher Price toys and games, power wheels vehicles have a type of 12 volt system.


Low voltage lights equivalent to 110 volt lights in watts?

To convert low voltage lights (e.g. 12 volts) to wattage equivalent to 110 volt lights, you would divide the voltage by 10. For example, 50 watts in a 110 volt system would be equivalent to a 5 watt bulb in a 12 volt system.


Is the voltage for 1956 Chevy truck 6 volt or 12 volt?

Originally it would have been a 6 volt system.


Is a 24 volt inverter more effecient than a 12 volt inverter?

Generally, a 24-volt inverter can be more efficient than a 12-volt inverter because higher voltage systems allow for lower current draw, reducing resistive losses in the system. This can lead to improved efficiency and less strain on the components over time. However, the overall efficiency also depends on the quality and design of the inverter itself.
