Can you use a 19v adapter on a 15v device?

In short: Yes. As long as the voltage is the same, it makes no difference if the rated current is higher on the supply than on the device you want to operate. If you would take a 1.5 amp adapter for a 2 amp device, you overload the adapter which results in shut down or failure.


Can you use 2 amp charger to charge a 3 amp device?

Yes, you can use a 2 amp charger to charge a 3 amp device, but the charging process may be slower than if you used a 3 amp charger. It's generally safe to use a lower amp charger, but it may not provide optimal charging speed for your device.


How does 12v dc 1.5 amp power adapter differ from 12v dc 3 amp power adapter?

The main difference is the amount of current each power adapter can supply. The 12V DC 3A power adapter can provide up to 3 amps of current, which means it can power devices that require more current compared to the 12V DC 1.5A adapter. This can affect the compatibility and performance of devices connected to the adapters.


Can you use a 3amp adaptor on a 5 amp appliance?

No, attempting to do so will destroy the adapter. It maywork for a short time, but it certainly won't work for long.An adapter should be sized so that it does not normally exceed 80% of it's duty rating. The maximum rating should only be used for brief periods.


Can you use 1 amp power supply for 1.5 amp device?

The simple answer is, No. But I'll give you the long answer, too. The power rating of most devices is the maximum power used under unusual circumstances. Most devices, unless it's something like a light bulb which is either on or off, don't use their max power 99% of the time. If you protect the circuit with a 1.0 amp fuse you protect your power supply and device and you can safely see if it works.

What is the purpose of a 30 amp 4 prong to 3 prong adapter and how does it work?

The purpose of a 30 amp 4 prong to 3 prong adapter is to allow a device with a 3 prong plug to be connected to a 4 prong outlet. It works by converting the 4 prong outlet into a 3 prong outlet, enabling compatibility between the device and the power source.

What is the recommended amperage for a fuse to use with a device that requires a 2.5 amp fuse?

The recommended amperage for a fuse to use with a device that requires a 2.5 amp fuse is 3 amps.


Can I use a 3amp supply on a 2amp supply?

Yes, you can use a 3-amp power supply on a device that requires a 2-amp supply, as long as the voltage matches. The 3-amp supply can provide the necessary current without overloading the device. However, the device will only draw the current it needs (2 amps), so there’s no risk of damage from the higher amperage. Just ensure that the voltage rating is correct to avoid potential issues.


What type of electrical plug is required for a device that needs a 30 amp 3 prong plug?

A device that needs a 30 amp 3 prong plug requires a NEMA 10-30 plug.


What type of electrical outlet is required for a device that uses a 3 prong 30 amp plug?

A device that uses a 3 prong 30 amp plug requires a NEMA 10-30 electrical outlet.


What type of electrical outlet is required for a device that uses a 50 amp 3 prong plug?

A device that uses a 50 amp 3 prong plug requires a NEMA 6-50 electrical outlet.


Will an 12v 3a dc out put power adapter fry up a machine that is 12v 2a dc out put?

Youshould not parallel two DC output adaptors. If you meant to say that the second device needed an input of 12 V at 2 amps then the 12 V at 3 amp adapter will work as a power source.

Can a device using 4.5v 75mA use a adapter at 3v 1000m?

Unlikely. 3 volts in stead of 4.5 volts is a too big gap between that it gets and what it expects.
