As always, if you are in doubt about what to do, the best advice anyone should give you is to call a licensed electrician to advise what work is needed.
Before you do any work yourself
on electrical circuits, equipment or appliances,
always use a test meter to ensure the circuit is, in fact, de-energized.

What else can I help you with?
What will happen if 120 volt appliance is plugged into 220 volt outlet explain with electrical equiation?
If the supply voltage is Vs and the equipment voltage is Va, then the equipment will work if Va = Vs (equation). But if Vs / Va = 220 / 120 (equation) the equipment will fail.
Can a 110 volt device be plugged into a 125 volt outlet?
Yes, a 110 volt device can be plugged into a 125 volt receptacle. The voltage rating on the receptacle is only there as the highest voltage supply that the manufacturer recommends their equipment be connected to.
Can you charge an electric shaver that uses a 3.8 VAC cord with a 7.5 VAC cord?
No, with electrical equipment the voltage has to match the supply voltage.
What other voltage can replace a 9 volts adapter's to a 9 volts equipment?
If the manufacturer specifies that a certain voltage is needed for their equipment, then that is the voltage that must be applied to it. To do otherwise may ruin the equipment and void the manufacturer's warranty.
How many volts needed to run a fluorescent light?
The voltage of your area is what determines the operating voltage of all equipment. Equipment from other countries usually has to use a transformer to get the correct voltage. The voltage on a fluorescent fixture is printed on the ballast of the fixture. See if the voltage on the ballast matches the supply voltage of the system that you are going to use to operate the fixture.

What happens if you trip a GFCI repeatedly on purpose?
Every time you trip the GFCI, the power to the device plugged into it will lose its supply voltage.
Can a 110 volt device be plugged into a 125 volt outlet?
Yes, a 110 volt device can be plugged into a 125 volt receptacle. The voltage rating on the receptacle is only there as the highest voltage supply that the manufacturer recommends their equipment be connected to.
What is the maximum voltage rating for the equipment that can be safely operated with a power supply of 230 VAC?
The maximum voltage rating for equipment that can be safely operated with a power supply of 230 VAC is typically around 250 volts.
What are the acceptable power ranges for 480 vac equipment?
All electrical equipment, regardless of the voltage, should have a voltage supply that is no more than plus or minus 5 per cent of the equipments stated voltage requirement.
Can you charge an electric shaver that uses a 3.8 VAC cord with a 7.5 VAC cord?
No, with electrical equipment the voltage has to match the supply voltage.
What happens to supply voltage if additional resistance is connected in parallel circuit?
The supply voltage in a parallel circuit remains the same regardless of the number of additional resistors connected. The voltage across each resistor in a parallel circuit is the same as the supply voltage. Adding more resistors in parallel will increase the total current drawn from the supply.
Can you use a 60Hz variac in a 50 Hz outlet?
Yes, you can use a 60Hz variac in a 50 Hz outlet. However, since the frequency is less, the current and power dissipation will be greater, making the efficiency less. It will not carry its rated load.
What other voltage can replace a 9 volts adapter's to a 9 volts equipment?
If the manufacturer specifies that a certain voltage is needed for their equipment, then that is the voltage that must be applied to it. To do otherwise may ruin the equipment and void the manufacturer's warranty.

What is the voltage supply used in flash lights?
Because a flash light is a portable piece of equipment, it operates on batteries. The power source is a DC voltage.
What must you match when purchasing a power supply?
The equipments power requirements, and the mains voltage. The output of the power supply must be able to deliver the correct voltage to the equipment, at the appropriate wattage. Additionally, it should be capable of operating on the supplied mains voltage and wattage.
