Best Answer

It depends on the distance from the electric panel and the difficulty in running the wire. You need 8 gauge wire and the outlet itself is expensive. You also need to describe if it is single or three phase to allow an answer that makes any sense.

What should you do if a nearby outlet sparks when the room light is switched on?

Disconnect the circuit breaker or fuse to that outlet. Then disable or replace the outlet. This is fairly easy and you can buy a new outlet at a home improvement store for a couple of bucks. If you are not comfortable working with these sorts of things call an electrician.


Can you plug a 115 volt 15 amp airconditioning unit to a 100 volt outlet?

I have never seen a 100 Volt rated outlet. Usually outlets would be rated for 110 to 120 volts for residential use, or maybe 150 volts. The rating is separate from what voltage the outlet is providing. If your outlet is supplying 100 volts, as measured by an accurate voltmeter, you have some problem in your wiring or a faulty outlet. If there is only 100 volts at the outlet get an electrician to diagnose the problem if you are not completely familiar with home wiring. In general you should never use an outlet that has a voltage or current rating less that the device will consume.

Does the ground go with the neutral when installing 3 prong dryer outlet?

On the U shaped blade for 120 volt 15 amp plug.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.: If you do this work yourself, always turn off the powerat the breaker box/fuse panel BEFORE you attempt to do any work ANDalways use an electrician's test meter having metal-tipped probes(not a simple proximity voltage indicator)to insure the circuit is, in fact, de-energized. IF YOU ARE NOT ALREADY SURE YOU CAN DO THIS JOBSAFELY AND COMPETENTLYREFER THIS WORK TO QUALIFIED PROFESSIONALS.

How do you know which outlet is controlled by a switch?

Plug a lamp into a working socket of an outlet to ensure the lamp works. Then turn off the switch and plug lamp into all outlet sockets, top and bottom outlets until the lamp doesn't light. Then turn on the switch and the lamp should light. Often a switch in a bedroom is only connected to one socket in a duplex outlet. It is possible to remove a jumper in an outlet to isolate the sockets for just this purpose. Often an electrician will install the outlet upside down (The third prong pointing up, to identify the outlet.

What temperature is hot for a 20 amp plug?

If you are asking this question I assume that the outlet/plug is hot enough to be noticeable and it is likely a problem you should address immediately. As a start remove the plug from outlet and see if the outlet is still hot. If so, turn off the breaker controlling the outlet. Remove outlet from box and see if there is evidence of a burned or loose wire. If there are no obvious problems and the outlet is still hot with nothing plugged in, call an electrician; or if you know how replace the outlet with a 20 amp outlet. Otherwise it could be a faulty plug which you should replace. The only other thing that might be wrong is a faulty breaker that isn't tripping on an over current condition and the connected device is drawing too much current.
