Yes. A twenty amp circuit just means the breaker (fuse) will kick in if you draw more then 20 amps, but its fine to use at less amperage.

How to wire a circuit for a ceiling fan installation?

To wire a circuit for a ceiling fan installation, first turn off the power to the circuit at the breaker box. Then, connect the fan's black wire to the black wire in the ceiling, the white wire to the white wire, and the green or bare wire to the ground wire. Secure the connections with wire nuts and install the fan according to the manufacturer's instructions. Finally, turn the power back on and test the fan to ensure it is working properly.


Can you replace a .16 amp fan with a .20 amp one?

Yes, you can typically replace a 0.16 amp fan with a 0.20 amp one as long as the voltage requirements are the same and the system can handle the slightly higher current draw. It's always best to check with the manufacturer or consult an electrician to ensure compatibility and safety.


How do you change a 3 wire cealing fan circuit to a 2 wire light circuit?

To change a 3-wire ceiling fan circuit to a 2-wire light circuit, you can bypass the fan function by connecting the fan's wires directly to the ceiling wires for the light. This will allow you to operate only the light with the switch. Make sure to disconnect the fan motor to ensure it does not turn on accidentally.


How to wire a ceiling fan with light?

To wire a ceiling fan with a light, first turn off the power to the circuit. Then, follow the instructions provided with the fan to connect the wires from the fan to the corresponding wires in the ceiling. Typically, you will connect the black wire to the black wire, the white wire to the white wire, and the green or bare wire to the ground wire. Make sure to secure the connections with wire nuts and test the fan before turning the power back on.


Why two different 30 amp cooktops wont work on a double pole 30 amp breaker using 10 4 wire One 4 wire cooktop only has fan working other 3 wire cooktop does not work at all?

So many variables not presented here. 1) Was it wired by a journeyman electrician? 2) IS the name plate rating as to voltage correct for the circuit supplying it? 3) Is it used or new equipment? Try to give as much info as possible? Once you get them working, one 30 amp 2 pole breaker will not adequately supply two 30 amp cooktops. The breaker will trip. If you intend to operate both at the same time, they need to be on separate 30 amp circuits or one 60 amp circuit which would require larger wire


You would like to install a 30 amp circuit and you have a open slot from a attic fan which no longer is needed and is 15 amp but how do you know if the 200 amp box can handle it?

See discuss question below.


How to wire a ceiling fan properly?

To wire a ceiling fan properly, first turn off the power to the fan at the circuit breaker. Then, follow the manufacturer's instructions for connecting the wires from the fan to the corresponding wires in the ceiling. Typically, this involves connecting the fan's black wire to the ceiling's black wire, the white wire to the white wire, and the green or bare wire to the ground wire. Use wire nuts to secure the connections and ensure they are tight. Finally, secure the fan to the ceiling according to the manufacturer's instructions.

How to wire a ceiling fan with remote control for optimal functionality?

To wire a ceiling fan with a remote control for optimal functionality, follow these steps: Turn off the power to the ceiling fan at the circuit breaker. Install the ceiling fan bracket to the ceiling. Connect the fan wires to the corresponding wires in the ceiling using wire nuts. Attach the fan blades to the fan motor. Install the remote control receiver in the fan canopy. Connect the receiver wires to the fan wires and secure them with wire nuts. Install the remote control and test the fan to ensure it is working properly. Turn the power back on at the circuit breaker. Following these steps will help you wire your ceiling fan with remote control for optimal functionality.


How do you wire a fan to a switch?

To wire a fan to a switch, first turn off the power to the circuit. Then, connect the fan's hot wire to one terminal of the switch and the hot wire from the power source to the other terminal. Connect the neutral wires together. Finally, secure all connections with wire nuts and cover with electrical tape. Test the fan to ensure it is working properly.


Why would an AC fan blower motor work on all speeds but high?

The circuit for high speed involves the relay to be closed. On a 1995 Chevy Pickup it is located behind the glove compartment. The lower speeds use a fan resistor pack for the different speeds. The voltage supplied to the resistor pack is usually a 25 amp inside fuse. The high speed circuit is supplied by a constant 12 volts that turns on the fan when the relay is energized. The voltage for the high speed circuit comes from a fuse under the hood. Usually a 50 amp. If all fuses are good then there might be a fusable link in the wire somewhere.
