42kw in 3phase 120208 system converts to how many amps?
To convert from kilowatts (kW) to amps in a 3-phase system, we need to know the system voltage. Using the formula: Amps = (kW x 1000) / (√3 x Volts), where √3 is the square root of 3. Assuming a system voltage of 120/208V, the amperage would be approximately 135.1 amps.
Can you connect a 240V ballast to 208V line service?
It is not recommended to connect a 240V ballast to a 208V line service as this can potentially damage the ballast and create a safety hazard. It is best to use a ballast that is specifically designed for use with a 208V line service to ensure safe and proper operation.
How do we know when to connect to 208v or 240v?
Its on the specifications of the device you will plug
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.
What is the difference of 208V differ from 220V?
The main difference between 208V and 220V is the voltage level itself. 208V is a three-phase voltage common in commercial and industrial settings, while 220V is a single-phase voltage commonly used in residential applications. The difference in voltage can impact the performance of electrical equipment designed for specific voltage inputs.
What size wire is needed for a 150 foot 350amp 208V 3phase circuit?
A 500 MCM copper conductor will limit the voltage drop to 3% or less when supplying 350 amps for 150 feet on a 208 volt system.
Are 120V and 208V the same?
no 208v is bigger
Can you feed a 208v 200amp panel from 480v 20amp circuit?
Not directly, you would need to transform 480v circuit to 120v with a transformer first.
Can a 3ph 208V 42 circut electrical panel that is recessed in the wall have a wood trim and a cabinet style door installed in addition to the panel cover door?
Yes as long as the removal of the distribution panel cover is not impeded by the cabinet door. The distribution panel cover must be able to be removed for an electrician to be able to work on the panel.
Is there a way to rewire a 5hp 3phase motor to run off of 240v without buying additional equipment?
No, you only have phase a and b. The motor will run as smoothly as a 3 phase motor that has lost a leg of power. That is if the motor is designed for 208v in the first place. Not a good idea.
If you are making your own device and you bring in 208 3 phase for part of your needs - how can you properly tap 110 single phase from it to operate other parts of your device?
Your incoming 208V 3 phase power supply will also need an incoming neutral of the same conductor size. Then any single pole breaker installed in the panel will have 110 volts to the neutral. That is you can run 208V 3 phase motor circuits from a three phase breakers in the panel and any number of 110V circuits from single pole breakers.

What rating is called for in a non fussed disconnect switch between a Automatic Transfer Switch with a 400amp breaker 120 208v system and a generator that outputs 120 208v 3ph capacity 100KW 125KVA?
400 amps
What is the kw input on a 50amp breaker with a 208v three phase electrical feed?
7200
How do you wire a 208V motor with a 120V light bulb in the same circuit?
First off, I'm going to have to quore Robert here: (LIFE SAFETY WARNING! [disclaimer] Electricity is dangerous! You can be injured or killed! Improper installations can cause fire, injury and death! Should you be doing this yourself?) This is one of those questions - if you know this little, you shouldn't be doing what you are planning... No disrespect intended, but this is SO basic that it suggests you have not studied the subject at all! There are many good reference books and course books to study from. Unless you have 208V 3 phase power, you cannot make this work. You cannot power a 208V motor off a 120V supply. Since it is 208V, it is likely that it is a 3 phase motor. That means it has 3 hots. Check the specification plate on the motor, it should say how to wire it. With 208V 3 phase you should be able to get 120 from 1 hot phase to neutral. This means you need 5 feed wires (3 hots, a neutral, and ground) from your panel to your little light/motor contraption. Please buy a book and read up on this. It sounds like you don't know much about your system and ignorance is fatal (and not necessairly fatal to you) with electricity.
