Most job sites in North America will have multi voltages to use for all workman's tools. This is done usually from the main temporary service with Transformers. Some such voltages for tools and equipment are 120, 208, and 240 volts. Check with the site foremen to find the voltage you need for your type of equipment.
What else can I help you with?
How do you get 240 volts out of a 110 outlet?
You would have to run new wires to obtain 240 volts or use a step-up transformer.
Do you need a step down transformer to run a 208 volt steam table on 240 volt feed?
Yes a transformer should be used. The steam table needs its correct voltage otherwise on 240 volts it will operate over its given specified nameplate wattage. A 208 volt heating element run off of 240 volt will have an output increase by 75 percent.
Can you use 240 volts with a 120 volt supply?
No, it is not possible to use 240 volts with a 120 volt supply directly. You would need a transformer to step up the voltage from 120 volts to 240 volts. Attempting to use 240 volts with a 120 volt supply without a transformer can damage equipment and pose a safety hazard.
Where you can buy an auto transformer 0 120 240 volt?
Try at a electrical wholesale outlet. Don't know why you would want a auto transformer. A standard 240 to 120 transformer usually does the job and it can be run backwards or forwards. 240 primary 120 output on secondary or 120 primary 240 output on secondary. Either way you will have to know the amperage of the load to get the correct size of transformer.
How do you convert your 110 volt neon sign to run off 240 volt UK socket?
What you will need is a 240 to 120 step down transformer. An adapter might work but it depends on what the current draw of the neon sign is at 120 volts.
Can you sub a 240 volt 1.5 amp transformer in place of a 240 volt 3 amp transformer?
If the load you are connecting to the transformer uses 1.5 amps or less, yes.
What transformer do you need if you have primary voltage of 600 3 phase and require 240 volt 1 phase?
A single phase 600 to 240 Volt transformer using two phases of the three phase primary.
What size of cable wire used for 500 kva transformer 240 volt 3 phase?
A 10 mm cable is most commonly used for a 500 KVA transformer, 240 volt, 3 phrase. The size of the wire that is used in a transformer is based on the voltage.
How do you get 240 volts out of a 110 outlet?
You would have to run new wires to obtain 240 volts or use a step-up transformer.
Do you need a step down transformer to run a 208 volt steam table on 240 volt feed?
Yes a transformer should be used. The steam table needs its correct voltage otherwise on 240 volts it will operate over its given specified nameplate wattage. A 208 volt heating element run off of 240 volt will have an output increase by 75 percent.
Can 110v circuit power 240v devices?
You need a step-up transformer, to go from 110 to 220-240 volts. Then a 110 volt supply can operate 240 volt equipment.
If you put a 110 plug on your 240 power tools can they be used by a 240 to 110 transformer?
No, they will not perform properly.
How can you get a 240V single-phase power from a 120V 3-phase service?
First of all there is no common three phase 120 volt service. There is in North America a three wire 120/240 volt single phase service. That being said, if you want to change a 120 volt source to 240 volts it must be done with a transformer. Its classification is a step up transformer. The primary side of the transformer H1 - H2 will be connected to the 120 volts. The secondary side of the transformer X1 - X2 will be connected to the 240 volt load. The transformer is sized by the current required by the 240 volt load.
Can you use 240 volts with a 120 volt supply?
No, it is not possible to use 240 volts with a 120 volt supply directly. You would need a transformer to step up the voltage from 120 volts to 240 volts. Attempting to use 240 volts with a 120 volt supply without a transformer can damage equipment and pose a safety hazard.
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.
Where you can buy an auto transformer 0 120 240 volt?
Try at a electrical wholesale outlet. Don't know why you would want a auto transformer. A standard 240 to 120 transformer usually does the job and it can be run backwards or forwards. 240 primary 120 output on secondary or 120 primary 240 output on secondary. Either way you will have to know the amperage of the load to get the correct size of transformer.
Is it possible to use a 110 volt product with 240 volt?
Yes provided that you use a transformer that will transform 110 to 220/240. Without the transformer you will blow your equipment. You can take a USA appliance and go to Europe and other places that use 220/240 and use it but only if you have a transformer that is in range with the power consumption of the 110 equipment. Most small/portable electrical equipment like computers, tablets or phones bought in the USA are now coming with dual voltage 110/240, so there is no need for transformers. If you equipment does not says 120/240 or 110/220 you WILL need the transformer.
