What is stove range voltage?
In U.S. residential wiring it is 240 volts.
What is the signal range for a multimeter oscilloscopes and signal generators.?
There are many different ranges, depending on the type (and expense) of the equipment involved. The range will be printed in the specifications for the device.
Can red and black be mixed up when wiring or are they interchangeable such as when wiring a range?
A person uses RED and BLACK to identify 2 hot wires. They are in essence 2 different circuits controlling the same device (range in your case). They are interchangeable YES.
What is the calculated load for an electric range rated at 16 kw?
a: there is no calculated load for the range. This 16 kw is the maximum that this particular range can safely use any thing less is OK.
Awg 8-2 with awg 10 ground can you use it to hook an electric range?
No way
What do electricians generally charge for wiring when switching from gas stove to electric range?
Around $400
Electric range outlet to gas range?
Most Gas ranges require power for the electric starter, in that case a 110V 15A plug outlet is required. Some gas ranges are "duel fuel" where there is an electric element in the oven as well as gas. then there are some that are gas for the cooktop burners but pure electric. in the last two cases, usually they requre 220v 40A, but its best to check with the manufacturer for power specifications before installing these ones.
Can you hook up a 240V circuit in series to a dryer and electric range?
The short answer is no. First off I assume you mean "can you have a dryer and an electric range on the same circuit?" (If they were actually wired in series, then you couldn't use your range if the dryer was off) In theory you could have them on the same circuit you just need to make sure that the wiring and the circuit they are on can handle the number of amps the two of them could draw together. If your breaker isn't big enough, it kill the power to the range while you are cooking dinner. If the wiring can't handle the load, then there is a fire risk. A dryer is usually on a 30amp circuit and a range is usually on a 50amp circuit, so to have them together would require an 80amp circuit, which will be difficult to find a breaker and wiring for.
What are car specifications?
All cars have a range of different specifications. Good car specifications include, space, fuel efficiency, safety, viability and top speed, although this is subjective.
Can you change electricity from 120V to 240V in your kitchen so that you could use a new electric oven instead of an old gas oven?
No The wiring isn't big enough to carry the load of an electric range Christmas is no time for a fire! Call an electrician!
What is better, a gas or electric range?
An electric range is considered to be superior by most professional cooks.
What are good car specifications?
All cars have a range of different specifications. Good car specifications include, space, fuel efficiency, safety, viability and top speed, although this is subjective.
What size circuit breaker for a stove?
that would really depend upon the stove (I assume that you mean an appliance with an electric cooktop and an electric oven) and the size of the wire present. Most of the time a stove will require a 50amp breaker. This will mean that you would need to have 6 gauge wiring. You can probably get by with a 40 amp breaker and 8 gauge wire if you absolutely had to. Always check the appliance specifications. they will recommend a breaker size.
Distributor cap wiring for a 91 Classic range Rover?
You can get a diagram of the distributor cap wiring for a 91 Classic Range Rover at most major auto parts stores. Libraries and book stores also have books with the wiring diagram.
What are the technical specifications of the Sony Bravia Tvs?
Although there are a whole range of TVs in the Bravia range with differing specifications, the Bravia range are all high definition LCD (Liquid Crystal Display) or Organic LED (Light Emitting Diode) screens which use the Sony XrossMediaBar to navigate their control menus.
Which force has a longer range the electric force or the strong force?
The electric force has a longer range. The strong force, as the name implies, is strong, however, it only works for a short range, namely, the range of the nucleus.
What is one problem with electric cars?
The major problem is lack of range. Fully electric cars have a limited range and then it takes hours to recharge them.
