Can a 240 volt sub panel run 115 volt motor?

In Europe 240 volts is standard, so no a 115 volt motor will not work. In USA 120 volts is standard, so if your sub-panel has 120 volts, (check with voltage meter) then yes. Read carefully, To get 240 volts in a sub-panel in USA the electric company brings two (2) wires, each wire has 120 volts, 120 + 120 = 240. One of those 120 volts will run your motor. Look for the wires from the electric company and check them with your voltage meter. If this is a commercial application you will need to call an electrical contractor, power companies for commercial applications do not follow the above.


Are electric blankets 110 volt and 220 volt or just 110?

Electric blankets are typically designed to operate on 110 volts in countries like the United States. In countries where the standard voltage is 220 volts, electric blankets are available in 220-volt versions. It's important to check the voltage requirements of the electric blanket before purchasing to ensure compatibility with your home's electrical system.


What volt circuit is needed for an 8.5 amp electric motor that uses 550 watts in 1 hour?

To calculate the voltage needed for the electric motor, use the formula Power = Voltage x Current. Given the power (550 watts) and current (8.5 amps), rearrange the formula to solve for voltage: Voltage = Power / Current. Plugging in the values, the voltage required for the motor would be approximately 64.7 volts.


Can a ge 36volt motor be run on 48 volts?

The 36 volt motor will over heat (depending on the load of the motor)on 48 volts and melt the copper inside the motor you can rewind the copper inside to cope with the extra 12 volts.My answer would be not to try it as i have and it totaly melted the copper inside.


Will a 220 volt ballast operate from a 230 volt source?

Yes, 220 volts is in the same voltage classification as 230 volts.

Why not put a 12 volt motor to replace the 120 volt motor in your freezer Will this work?

The voltage of 120 volts is more common that the lower voltage of 12 volts.


Is units of electric current a volt?

Electric current is measured in amps not voltsElectric voltage is measured in volts.


What is a unit to measure electric potential?

Volt. As in "the voltage is 2 volts"


Can a 110 volt motor run on 240 volts without damage?

No, unless the motor was wound for dual voltage operation, which it will state on the motor nameplate, a 110 volt motor run on 240 volts will be damaged.


Will it hurt a 4.8 volt dc electric motor if you put greater then 4.8 volts on it?

Yes. DC motors require the specified supply voltage to operate correctly. Supplying a higher voltage to it will burn up the motor.


Can you run a 480 volt machine with 600 volt incoming voltage?

Yes, but the 600 volts would have to be transformed down to 480 volts. Direct connection to the motor with 600 volts would overheat the motor to destruction.


Will it hurt a 4.8 volt DC electric motor if you put 4.5 or lower volts on it?

No. Varying a DC motor's voltage will vary its speed. If your motor is rated for 1000 rpm at 4.8 volts, running it on 4.5 volts should produce something in the area of 937 rpm. It shouldn't be a very noticeable difference, unless the voltage is much lower than the rating.


Will a 500volt 50hz squirrel cage motor run on 380volts 50hz?

No, the voltage of 500 volts is too high to operate a 380 volt motor.


Units of voltage?

Voltage (V)AnswerThere is no base unit for voltage. The volt is a derived unit.


How can you tell if a motor is a 6 volt or a 12 volt?

Look on the motor case and the correct voltage should be printed there. Otherwise, see if it runs at the right speed on 6 volts.

How many volts to run a 48 Volt club car electric motor?

If a 48 Volt club car electric motor requires 48 volts, then it should be given a 48 volt power source, or something close to it. Too many more volts and it may burn out; not enough volts and it may not run or it will try to draw too much power and burn out the power supply.
