There might be a problem. It depends on what the wattage of the flood light is. If the wattage is higher than what the fixture is rated for then it is not a good idea to use it. Look inside of the recessed fixture and look for the label that was put there by the manufacturer. It will state what the maximum wattage the fixture can legally handle.

How do you know whether to get 120 volt or 130 volt light bulb?

Choose a bulb with the same voltage as your fixture to prevent damage or risk of overheating. If the fixture specifies 120 volts, use a 120-volt bulb. If in doubt, consult the manufacturer's instructions or a professional electrician.


Can you use a 277 volt high pressure sodium light in my garage?

Not unless you have 277 volts in your garage. Open the fixture and check the ballast. Some of the commercial fixtures have multi tap connections for different voltages. If 120 or 240 volt tap is present then you can use the fixture.


How do you wire a 240 volt light fixture?

To wire a 240-volt light fixture, you'll need to ensure you have a dedicated circuit with a 240-volt power supply. You will connect the fixture's hot wire to one of the hot wires from the circuit, the neutral wire to the neutral wire, and the ground wire to the ground wire. It's crucial to follow the manufacturer's instructions and consult a licensed electrician if you're unsure.


Can a 12 2 low voltage line light up a 120 volt led light fixture?

What needs to be checked is the voltage of the low voltage line. If it is 120 v, that is suitable for a 120 v LED fitting. Second, is the line capable of carrying the current needed by the fixture. The answer to that is, probably, but it still needs checking.


Is it possible to convert a 220 volt light a 110 volt by changing the ballast?

Is it incandescent or flourescent? If it's incandescent it will work okay--it'll be dim but it will work. A fluorescent probably wouldn't fire. Now having said that, if this is a European lamp google "110v European base bulbs" and you'll find light bulbs that work on 110v but have bases that screw into European sockets. Just change the plug on the lamp and you're golden.

Can you use an US 110 volt light fixture in Uganda?

No, you cannot directly use a US 110-volt light fixture in Uganda, as Uganda operates on a 220-240 volt electrical system. Using a 110-volt fixture without a proper transformer could damage the fixture and pose safety hazards. If you want to use the fixture, you would need a step-down transformer that converts 220-240 volts to 110 volts. Additionally, you may need to address the difference in plug types used in Uganda.
