Devices are rated by voltage and amperage. If you have a source rated for 600 volts you can use a 250 volt device, but not vice versa.

Can a 3 pole 100 amp 600 volt disconnect be used for 3 phase 250 volt?

Yes. But if you don't know the answer to the question please hire a professional. The life you save may be your own.


Can you use a 6 amp 250 volt appliance with a 1 amp 250 volt adaptor?

No, that adaptor can not supply a 6 amp load because it's limited to 1 amp, most probably by the size of the prongs and/or the internal wiring.


Can you use a 20 amp 250 volt receptacle in place of 20 amp 125 volt?

Electrically yes it is safe but the pin configuration will be different.


Can you use 600 volt fuses in place of 250 volt fuses on a 208 Volt System?

Answer for USA, Canada and countries running a 60 Hz supply service.If they fit, which I doubt, yes, you can use 600 volt fuses in place of 250 volt fuses so long as the amp rating is correct.YOU CANNOT USE 250 VOLT FUSES IN PLACE OF 600 VOLT FUSES !!!You can use a fuse with a higher volt rating but not a smaller volt rating than the voltage applied to the circuit.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.Before you do any work yourself,on electrical circuits, equipment or appliances,always use a test meter to ensure 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 many volts can you draw off of a 15amp breaker?

It's the amps that are controlled by the breaker not the volts. You can have a 600 volt 15 amp breaker, you can have a 347 volt 15 amp breaker. The breaker will trip when you exceed 15 AMPS.


30 amps on a 250 volt outlet can handle how many watts?

A 30 amp circuit on a 250 volt service could handle up to 7500 watts. That's if it's actually 250 volts coming in. You should check that with your meter.


How do I make a 30 amp 250 volt line output only 220 volts at 30 amps?

you get a transformer...


Is a fuse rated 8 volt 25 amps equal to a 8 volt 250 mp fuse?

No, a 250-Amp fuse would be much larger than a 25-amp fuse. A fuse is generally designed to have a thermal runaway and melt the connection when there is too much current for too long.

Is 20 amp 250 volts enough to use a kitchen stove?

Yes, a 20 amp 250 volt circuit is typically sufficient to power a kitchen stove. Most electric stoves require a 240 volt power supply, which can be provided by a 20 amp 250 volt circuit. However, it's always important to consult the specifications of the stove to ensure proper voltage and amperage requirements are met.


What circuit breaker to install for 10 amp 250 volt circuit?

You need a breaker rated for 10 amps and 250 volts. The breaker must also fit properly in your panel.


What size of 12v transformer will run 600watts?

Amps * Volts = Watts Amps * 12 = 600 600/12 = Amps = 50 amps You would need a reserve capacity, so I'd go somewhere between 60 or 100 Amp rated transformer. Transformers are rated in volt-amps which is usually calculated the same as watts. But the term "watts" technically does not apply to transformers. So you need a 600 volt-amp transformer or, as Redbeard has suggested, you need an 800 or 1000 volt-amp transformer. That's a lot of amps for a 12 volt system so I recommend you double check your requirements. You will need a #2 gauge wire if your requirements are correct.
