Your stereo system has an internal transformer in the power supply that is designed to operate at a given frequency. If it is designed to operate at the load your stereo system will use at 50 Hz, then yes. Otherwise this transformer will overheat when connected at the wrong frequency, and will burn out.

You might be lucky and the power supply may be labelled to operate at 50 or 60Hz; if not, I recommend contacting the manufacturer.

A voltage transformer will convert 50Hz 220 to 50Hz 110. To change frequency, you need special equipment.

What will happen rated voltage applied in transformer short circuit?

I can only answer this from an actual problem I had in relation to the question.20-60VA 12V transformer supplying 2x20W lamps,both lamps had blown,so I bought 2x10W replacement lamps.On replacing the lamps,when I fitted the first and tried to power up,the lamp glowed briefly,then went out.It was only when I fitted the second lamp that both fittings lit up continuously,so in brief,the answer to the question is................the load won't operate.AnswerThe power rating of a load should never exceed the volt ampere rating of the transformer, otherwise the resulting load current may overheat the transformer. So the situation you describe is perfectly normal.The reason for the problem encountered by the writer of the original answer is not clear. A 60-V.A transformer should supply two 20-W lamps without any difficulty whatsoever. I suspect that the problem had nothing to do with the power rating of the lamps vs that of the transformer, and more to do with the voltage. For example, was the secondary voltage of the transformer higherthan the rated voltages of the lamps? If so, then the lamps would have burnt out.


What is the voltage requirement for 1 yellow LED?

A: Usually LEDS are 1.8v but this varies from color to color and size. When a LED is bought that is when the voltage is current must be evident otherwise you need a VOM and a 9v battery and some resistors to find the voltage.


Where can one purchase old Transformer videos?

Old Transformers videos can be purchased from some stores and websites that offer them for sale. While rare, they can be bought from stores such as eBay.


How do you differentiate inductive loadcapacitive load resistive load which basics?

For an inductive load, the current lags the voltage by 90 degs. Hence the power factor for an inductive load is 0. For a capacitive load, the current leads the voltage by 90 degs. Hence the power factor for a capacitive load is 0. For a resistive load, the current and the voltage are in phase. Hence the power factor for a resistive load is 1.


Can you get a 3 phase supply from single phase and how?

No, you cannot get a three phase supply directly from a single phase supply. Nowadays electronic inverter units can be bought that will do the job. For very low power loads the cost of such invertors is quite reasonable but for high power loads they are very expensive. For high-power industrial uses the most economical solution is to have a 3-phase service installed by the local electric power utility company.

Will an apple computer bought in Bermuda work in Ireland?

No. Bermuda has a voltage of 110 volts. Ireland has a voltage of 220 volts. You will need a transformer to use it in Ireland.


How do you calculate input voltage of a transformer given both side high and low side impedances and also load with power factor?

The input voltage (primary) and output (secondary) of a transformer is determined by the manufacturer. Transformers are bought to accommodate the voltage that is needed on the primary side and to what voltage is needed on the secondary side.

Can a 220 volt heat pad bought in China be plugged into our US 120 volt outlet?

No, it is not safe to plug a 220 volt heat pad bought in China into a US 120 volt outlet. The voltage difference can damage the heat pad and pose a safety risk. You would need a transformer or voltage converter to safely use the heat pad in the US.
