Yes. If the plug (cap) end of the 250 volt lamp is compatible to the receptacle the lamp would work. The light output of the lamp would not be very bright. Because the working voltage is halved so would the light output.
A 30 amp circuit on a 250 volt service could handle up to 7500 watts. That's if it's actually 250 volts coming in. You should check that with your meter.
Yes if the bulb is an incandescent type of bulb.Further InformationThe voltage printed on a lamp is its nominal, or named, value. For example, the nominal voltage of the UK's supply (since January 1995) is 230 V. But this does not mean that the actual voltage is necessarily 230 V, as it does vary. In fact, it is allowed to vary from -6% to +10% of its nominal value -in other words, from 216.2 - 253.0 V. So, as you can see, it would be considered quite normal for a 240-V lamp to be subjected to 250 V.
You would have a code violation, only a 50 amp/250V plug would fit into a 50 amp/250V receptacle. You would not have proper overload protection, the load could (worst case) call for more amps than it is rated for and catch fire before the breaker tripped.
Plugging a 250-volt device into a 208-volt outlet is generally not advisable because the voltage is lower than the device's rated input. While some devices may operate at lower voltages, there is a risk of insufficient power supply, which could lead to malfunction or damage. It's important to check the device's specifications and consult an electrician if in doubt to ensure safety and proper functionality.
To calculate the amperage, you can use the formula: Amps = Watts / Volts. If the heat lamp operates at 250 watts and is plugged into a standard 120-volt outlet, the amperage would be approximately 2.08 amps.
Yes, you can plug a 240-volt, 16-amp deep fryer into a 250-volt, 20-amp outlet, as the voltage and amperage ratings are compatible. The outlet can safely provide the necessary voltage, and the amperage rating exceeds the fryer’s requirement. However, ensure that the plug and outlet are compatible in terms of physical design and grounding. Always follow local electrical codes and regulations for safety.
Yes you can - with a transformer. Maplin Electronics sell a converter that allows you to plug appliances that run on 110V into the normal UK mains. See the related.
The device requires a 250 volt 20 amp receptacle, which is typically a NEMA 6-20 outlet.
No, the voltage difference is too high.
NO

YES, Make sure to get adapter plug for India.

No. You will need a transformer to step up the voltage and you will possibly need to convert the plug.
