What size of cable to connect a 1500 watt power converter?

I assume you are asking about an inverter that uses a 12V battery to supply 120VAC. If so, depending on the efficiency of your inverter, the battery current will be around 130 to 140 amps at full load. For that current, the smallest cable you would want to use is 2/0 (two-ought). If your cable length is over 5 or 6 feet you would want even larger cable, perhaps 4/0 to minimize voltage drop. Make or have made the proper crimp lug terminations at each end of the cable. Do not scrimp here! Improperly made connections will generate heat, and could ruin the equipment or even start a fire. If the wiring runs through a vehicle chassis, then be sure to install a fuse at the battery! If cables this size were to wear through on a sharp metal edge and short together, there will be more than enough heat generated to start a fire. Be safe!


How do you check the under voltage relay?

The way you check to see if an under voltage relay is wired properly is to disconnect the electrical supply. If the device that is connected to the load side of the relay does not start up or energize when the electrical supply is reconnected, then the relay is connected correctly.


Who were the people responseble for electricity and its present use?

Edison invented a DC power system in the start but it had problems transmitting long distances, Tesla invented the AC power system, transformers, ac motors and generators Tesla also invented a wireless electricity supply system where you picked up your electricity through the air with a tuned antenna but he was not allowed to finish the construction of the first transmission tower because he wasn't able to meter the electricity for sale.


What happens to a motor that runs on 230 VAC is accidentally connected to a 440 VAC supply?

It will overheat, probably even on no-load. It might blow the circuit breaker or start producing smoke.

Can a loose negative battery cable make a car hard to start?

Yes. A loose negative battery cable can make a car hard to start. In fact it can make it impossible to start. If you don't have one you can go to a hardware or automobile supply store and purchase an adjustable wrench for a few dollars. With that wrench, you can tighten your cable. That wrench is useful for a number of things. While you are at it, also get a piece of sand paper and clean the battery terminal.

How do you check if the alternator is working?

Get yourself a mulitmeter, start the car then attach the meter to the battery.If the alternator is working then the meter should say that there is 13.2 to 14.8 Volts. Under NO CIRCUMSTANCES should you remove a battery cable while the engine is running. This could cause you to DESTROY THE COMPUTOR due to a voltage spike!
