Can you change the 1 amp fuse on a shaver adapter to a higher voltage so you can use it with something else?

Changing a fuse size does not change the voltage output. An adapter is a transformer. The transformer in this adapter has a set of turn ratios determined by the manufacturer to produce a specific secondary voltage when inputted with a specific voltage. You may be able to use the adapter on another device but it has to conform to the specifications of the adapter as it now stands. The fuse protects the primary side of the adapters transformer so as to not overload the transformer. If the fuse is up sized then the risk of overloading the adapter becomes a possibility. This could burn the windings of the transformers secondary and render the adapter useless.


How do you provide some method of voltage division to meet equipment used?

Voltage division is a very complicated way to change the voltage supplied to a piece of equipment. You need to install a transformer, if the difference is significant, and transformers should only be installed by qualified professionals.


Does a Resistor have a different resistance when connected to a power source vs if the resistance is tested when the resistor is out of circuit?

No, the resistance of a resistor remains the same whether it is connected to a power source or tested out of circuit. The resistance value is an intrinsic property of the resistor and does not change based on the external conditions.


How do you change 115v to 230v?

You can use a voltage converter or transformer to change 115V to 230V. Make sure to select a converter or transformer that is capable of handling the required voltage conversion and power load. It is always best to consult a professional electrician for safe and proper installation.


Does a transformer convert AC to DC?

No, a transformer does not change AC to DC. For this purpose there is a device known as a rectifier, and to transform it back to AC from DC you'll need an inverter. Transformers are only useful with AC due to the alternating waveform which induces a voltage in the secondary winding (when it is connected to a load).

What size resistor to change 12 volts to 3 volts for a led?

Assuming that you're talking about 12V DC you would use a 4 ohm resistor. If you mean AC then you would need a step-down transformer with a 4:1 ratio.


The basic function of a transformer is to change?

The basic function of a transformer is to change voltage levels.


You can use neutral to autotransformer?

Yes, but the transformer must have both the hot and neutral to work as designed. A auto-transformer is not a variable resistor that could reduce current/voltage by a change in the resistance which could be used in the hot and or neutral wire. An auto-transformer is designed to have the hot wire and neutral on each end of the winding with a variable tap in between. The resistance of the transformer and the inductance will effect the circuit to a limited way if placed in the neutral but this effect will not vary the voltage over the full range, the amount of voltage reduction will vary with the load's current draw, see ohms law. Neither a resistor or a auto-transformer connected in the neutral line only will increase the voltage above the level of the input like a correctly connected auto-transformer . Stanley


Why is a transformer necessary?

A transformer is not 'necessary'. The human race evolved, and developed cultures, societies, disease resistance, and technology, without ever seeing a transformer. But there are specific situations in which desirable things can be accomplished much more effectively and efficiently with a transformer than with any other device or method. Here are a couple of examples: -- If the voltage you have available is not the voltage you need, then you can use a transformer to make the change. (But that only works for AC.) -- You can use a transformer to change the output impedance of an amplifier to the impedance of the speaker or earbuds you want to use with it.


Difference between variable and fixed resistor?

Variable resistors means that a resistor which can change its resistance by control by any person or it self and fixed resistor means that it can not change its value.


How you change the blower motor resistor in Nissan maxima 2002?

To change the blower motor resistor in a 2002 Nissan Maxima, locate the blower motor resistor under the glove compartment on the passenger side of the vehicle. There is a clip that is depressed and then the resistor will slide out. Remove both ends of the resistor and then replace with the new resistor.


Can a transformer change into anything?

Yes it can


What is the range of resistor in water level detector?

The range of resistor value typically used in water level detectors is between 1k ohm to 100k ohm. The specific resistor value depends on the sensitivity required for detecting the water level change. It's important to choose the resistor value that provides a balance between sensitivity and stability in the detector circuit.


How do you make ac into DC in a ac transformer?

You can not change AC into DC using a transformer. A transformer changes the voltage levels. To change AC into DC, you would need a rectifier. To change that into smooth DC you need a capaciter and a voltage regulater

Function of a variable resistor?

Variable resistor is an resistor that can change its resistance manually, by rotating a handle or a screw.


What is the purpose of constant voltage transformer?

The term 'constant voltage transformer' is used to differentiate the operation of transformers that are intended to change voltage levels, from those intended to change current levels -a current transformer (CT), for example, is termed a 'constant current transformer'.
