You shouldn't really have much voltage "drop". If you do, it usually means that there is a poor connection somewhere along your service line or inside wiring. Any significant amount of voltage drop can mean that you are at risk of a fire. On the other hand, line voltage into a house may not actually be 240 VAC. Measure the ACTUAL voltage with everything turned off, then see where it goes when you start turning things back on. The difference between the supplied voltage and the load voltage is the voltage "drop".

What voltage is used in commercial area in Canada?
120v, 240v and 347v for lighting
What is the voltage used in Uganda?
It is 240V / 50Hz AC. The plug/socket used is like the one used in Great Britain.
What is 240v?
the voltage of the mains electricity in the UK
How can you increase voltage of an ac adapter?
Increase primary voltage but decraease amerage - eg double voltage and half amperage. This will double your secondary voltage. "Transformed" voltage is easy to understand by following this simple math rule. secondary voltage divided by primary voltage = no of turns on secondary and no of turns on primary. eg; 240v \ 12v = 20 (factor) this means the secondary winding is 20x the primary winding. Basically thats all I know Stick to this rule for step up & step down tranforming & you'll be sweet.
You need to connect a compressor which is rated at 240V ac but it is hooked up to a 120V power supply so you're uncertain on how that could be and how to connect the compressor?
Your compressor is a dual voltage compressor. The original installer followed the instructions to switch it (probably internally) to the 230 volt setting or to internally wire it for that voltage. The label or information plate on the unit may only indicate the higher voltage rating. You don't have to do anything.
What does 240 mean?
240 refers to the voltage used in an electrical system. The US uses 120V/240V, while the UK uses just 240V.
What is the voltage in Adelaide?
Same as in Australia, 240V.
What voltage is needed for electric ovens?
240V
What would the control voltage be for a transformer marked 240v 24vac?
A control transformer marked 240V - 24Vac would have a control voltage of 24 volts.
What is the voltage and current for a single phase supply?
240v
Does 240v adapter works on 230 voltage?
yes
What voltage standards in Australia for tools?
Australia runs 240v
What is the ac alternating current supply voltage in MALAYSIA?
240v
What is 380V?
if you are talking about the peak voltage of 240v it is actualy about 340v
Is 250V a safe voltage for the 220-240v appliances in India?
Simple answer..NO.
1kw light bulb how many amps do you need if the voltage is 240v?
The basic formula for the Voltage, Current, Power relationship is P=I*E. To find one when the other two are known, simply fill in the two you know and solve. In this case P=1000W and Voltage = 240V (It is important that you pay attention to the unit definer here, if it were 240 mV, you would have Voltage = .240V and so on). 1000W = I * 240V I = 1000W/240V I = 4.17A
600 watts requires how many amps?
It depends on the voltage source. watts = voltage * voltage / resistance and amps = voltage / resistance example 1: To produce 600W from a 120V source, you need a resistor of size 120V*120V/600W = 24 Ohm. This would pull 120V/24 Ohm = 5 amps. example 2: To produce 600W from a 240V source, you need a resistor of size 240V*240V/600W = 96 Ohm. This would pull 240V/96 Ohm = 2.5 amps.
