How can you plug 2000 watts 240v into a 120v 20 amp breaker with out replacing your breaker and all the plugs on the line?
You cannot safely plug a 2000 watt 240v appliance into a 120v 20 amp breaker without risking damage or fire hazard. To use the appliance, consider installing a step-up transformer to convert the voltage from 120v to 240v before plugging it in. This will ensure the appliance operates correctly without overloading the circuit.
If a 120 volt current is protected by a 25 amp circuit breaker What is the largest number of watts an appliance can safely use?
The largest number of watts an appliance can safely use on a 120V circuit protected by a 25A breaker is 3000 watts. You calculate this by multiplying the voltage (120V) by the amperage (25A). This gives you a maximum power capacity of 3000 watts on this circuit.
What fuse would you use if you were fitting a new plug to a 2.5kw heater assume a voltage of 120v?
To calculate the fuse rating needed, use the formula: Fuse rating = (Power of appliance / Voltage of appliance) + 0.25. For the 2.5kW heater at 120V, the calculation is (2500W / 120V) + 0.25 = 20.83A. Therefore, you would use a 20A fuse for the 2.5kW heater at 120V.
Calculate 120Volt 15 amp appliance kWh?
Well, a 120V appliance that draws 15A would be using 1800W. (15x120). A killowatt hour is one killowatt used continuously for an hour. If you used that device for one hour straight, it would use 1.8 kWh. (Keep in mind the device may not draw a full 15A)
Can you use a 120v cord that will fit a 240v socket the appliance is 240 and the cord is thick?
120v and 240v cords usually have different end configurations and will not plug into the different recepticles. However, if you changed the plug end, and the cord has the proper size rating, then yes, you could use the same cord. But, it also depends on the cord too. Most 120v cords only have three wires in them. One "hot one "neutral" and one "ground" wire. A 240v cord would have FOUR wires, two "hot" wires, one neutral wire, and one ground wire. Therefore, if you changed the voltage from 120v to 240 using a 3 wire cord, you'd not have a ground wire and that could be VERY dangerous. Note that occasionally a 240v device (e.g. some motors) will only need three wires (red,black,green, no neutral) and can be wired with a 120v cord if the cord is rated for 240v.
Can 120V appliance work with 220V?
120V appliance will not work on 220V. Use an instrument transformer or voltage regulator to adjust the high voltage to the desired level.
Can you buy a 120v appliance and use it with a 220v outlet?
A high voltage will certainly damage a low voltage appliance and perhaps set fire to other things nearby.
Can you use UK appliances in the us?
Not unless the appliance is rated to be used with the two different power supplies. The US uses 120v, 60 Hz if it plugs into a receptacle, and possibly 240v, 60Hz if it is hard wired. The UK uses 240v, 50Hz whether it plugs in or is hard wired. These two power systems are NOT compatible. You may use a US appliance in the UK, and vice versa, only if the appliance is dual rated, i.e. the appliance says 120v/60Hz AND 240v/50Hz on the nameplate. If the appliance only specifies one power supply, it can only be used on that power supply. If this is the case, you may be able to use a travel adapter to operate the appliance.

How can you convert US 120V or 240V circuit into a single phase 240V circuit to use on a European appliance?
The voltage isn't a problem, you can run 220 from your house and use that to run a European appliance, the problem is whether the appliance is dependant on line HZ. European is 50HZ and US is 60HZ. If the appliance specifies 220/50HZ, it will probably give you trouble here. If it says 220V/50 or 60HZ
Can a 120V 20A non-locking plug be replaced with a locking-type plug of the same rating without affecting the performance of the appliance?
Change the receptacle and the plug is the best way to do this. Provided you use a properly rated plug, changing the plug type will not affect the appliance at all.
If you had 277-480 3phase power feed can you still use it to power IT equipment rated at 110-120V?
yes

What phones use the lg PC suite to sync?
The LG PC suite comes from, ofcourse, the LG brand. The cell phone, LG Viewty uses this appliance to synchronize. More phones from LG might be able to use this appliance.
