France uses 220-240 volts for their electrical system.
Hot, neutral and ground.
'Lighting', or the amount of light is not measured in watts. A 'watt' is a unit of power, measurement of current drawn. Most 100 watt/110 volt lamps initially produce 1690 lumens (a 'lumen' is the measure of the total "amount" of visible light emitted by a source). A 15 foot by 10 foot room is not very big, and one or two 100 watt incandescent lamps on a ceiling light fixture on a 120 volt service can light it adequately. I mention "110 volt" as in parts of the world with 220 mains these numbers change. As the voltage is doubled, the watts required would halve for the same amount of light. In other words, all other things being equal, a 50 watt 220 volt lamp should use the same amount of power, producing the same amount of light as a 100 watt 110 volt lamp.
your house has 220 you must use a 2 pole breaker. your wiring will change ,not a do it your selfer call someone
No, a 240 volt device runs on 240, and a 120 volt device runs on 120. Attempting to run a device on incompatible voltage results in damage.
Yes. Circuits in a home are 120 volts but people tend to call them 110 volt circuits. The 120 volts you read on the appliance is the maximum voltage the appliance can handle. The actual voltage you will read at any outlet will range from 110 to 120 volts.
Yes, you can use a 220-volt circuit in the basement to run branch circuits for 110-volt lighting. You would need to install a step-down transformer near the lighting circuits to reduce the voltage from 220 to 110 volts. Make sure to adhere to electrical codes and regulations when setting up the system to ensure safety and proper functioning.
115 Volt and a 110 Volt can be treated as the same thing. The electrical voltage supplied from your electric company is not exact and can be 120 Volt + or - 10%.
no.
Sorry, won't work. You need a 110 volt supply.
Yes, the two voltages are in the same voltage range.
A 3000W 110V generator can provide up to 27A.
Only use 110-120 volt appliances on a 110 volt socket.
There is no need to convert a 110-volt outlet to 115 volts as they are essentially the same. The slight variation is within the normal tolerance range for electrical systems. If you need to use a device that requires 115 volts, you can safely plug it into a 110-volt outlet without the need for an adapter.
Yes, the two voltages are in the same range category.
NO
Yes
