To determine how many 12-volt, 50-watt bulbs can be used on a 100 VA transformer, first convert the transformer's capacity from VA to watts, which is effectively the same for resistive loads (100 watts in this case). Each 50-watt bulb requires 50 watts, so you can divide the total available watts by the wattage of one bulb: 100 watts ÷ 50 watts/bulb = 2 bulbs. Therefore, you can use 2 of the 12-volt, 50-watt bulbs on a 100 VA transformer.

How many gallons of oil in a 2500 kva 12470 480 volt transformer?

Oil is used to cool the transformer. There is no telling what the transformer in question uses without knowing the specific part number and looking up the specification.


Can you wire two 120 volt light bulbs to a 277 volt circuit?

Yes, you can wire two 120-volt light bulbs to a 277-volt circuit by connecting them in series. However, the voltage across each bulb will be 138.5 volts, which exceeds their rated voltage and could damage the bulbs. Instead, it is safer and more appropriate to use bulbs rated for 277 volts or use a proper transformer to step down the voltage. Always ensure compliance with electrical codes and safety standards when working with wiring.


How do you convert 115 volt into 230 volt?

The only way to do that is with a transformer. They make inline transformers that convert 230 to 115 and they simply plug in inline.


Where is a step up transformer used in the home?

An example would be if you had a oil furnace, the ignition system would be a step up transformer. The step up 120 volt to 15000 volt transformer is used to ignite the fuel that comes out of the nozzle under high pressure to make the fuel burn.
