What else can I help you with?
Can a 240v stove run on 2 legs of a 208v system?
No, a 240V stove requires full 240V to operate correctly. Running it on 208V may cause the stove to malfunction or not work at all. It is important to match the voltage requirements of the stove with the power supply for safe and proper operation.
Can you run your neon sign of 120v 50hz 60hz 0.6a 7.5kv 30mA in an Australian 240v power outlet?
No. The neon sign is fed by a step-up transformer. Primary side 120V, secondary side 7500V. If you applied 240 to the primary side you would get 15000 volts on the neon tube. A flash over and then nothing. If you can find a transformer from 120V to 240V or 240V to 120V then you are good to go. Connect 240V to 240V side and you will get 120V out the other, connect the 120V side to the neon sign and you should have light. Transformer should be at least 100va. This will give you an output of .83 amps at 120V
What efficiency difference 240v 120v baseboard heater?
240V baseboard heaters are usually more efficient than 120V baseboard heaters in terms of energy consumption because they require less current to produce the same amount of heat. This can result in lower heating costs. However, the actual efficiency also depends on the insulation of the room and the overall heating system.
600 watts requires how many amps?
To calculate the amperage, you need to use the formula: Amps = Watts / Volts. Assuming a standard voltage of 120V, you can calculate the amperage by dividing 600 watts by 120 volts, which equals 5 amps. Therefore, 600 watts would require 5 amps of current at 120 volts.
Can you lose 240v but not 120v from main power line to house?
Yes, it is possible to lose 240V while still having 120V from the main power line to a house. This can occur if there is a fault or disconnection in one of the phases supplying the 240V circuit, which typically consists of two 120V lines. If one phase is lost, the 120V circuits connected to that phase will be affected, but the circuits on the other phase may still function normally. However, this situation can lead to unbalanced loads and potential issues with appliances.
You are building a new house and trying to decide between 120v and 240v which is better More practical?
In the US, both 120v and 240v will be needed for your home, as different appliances need different voltages. Your TV needs 120V, while your electric dryer and stove will need a 120V/240V supply. If you have an electric water heater, or central AC unit, they will need a 240V supply.
How to convert 120v to 240v for electrical appliances?
To convert 120v to 240v for electrical appliances, you can use a step-up transformer. This device increases the voltage from 120v to 240v, allowing you to safely power appliances that require the higher voltage. Make sure to follow all safety precautions and consult a professional if needed.
Can 240V washer run on 120V outlet?
No.
Why are you not getting 240v between the two hot wires?
Because they are "in-phase". In order to get 240v, you need two 120v Alternating Current lines that are 180° out of phase, that is, opposite phases. Only when one line is +120v and the other -120v will you see 240v between the wires.
Can a kitchen stove be on the small appliance circuit?
No, unless it's a gas range. An electric range requires 240V and 40A while a small appliance will be 120V and Max 15A.
If you put a 60W 120V bulb in a 120V lamp that has a transformer for 240V and plug it into a 240V outlet will it work or blow the circuitry?
Off hand no but your explanations are not clear as to who is doing what to whom,,
Can I use 120v 10a 1250 w cable for projector 110-240v power in India?
You can use 120v 10a 125w cable projectors 110-240v power in India.
You have 120v photo flash lights - how do you use them with 240v in Oz?
Power adaptors are readily available that plug into Australia's 240v outlets, converting to 120v. Find them in travel, luggage and electronics stores.
How to change 120v to 240v in a safe and effective manner?
To change 120v to 240v safely and effectively, you will need to install a step-up transformer. This device will increase the voltage from 120v to 240v while maintaining electrical safety. It is important to follow all manufacturer instructions and consult with a qualified electrician to ensure proper installation and operation.
What are the two most popular operating voltages for residences?
120v and 240v
