Can you run a 110v heater on 220v circuit?
No.It'll overload and fail just about immediately.It's possible - but not recommended - to run two 110 v heaters in series from a 220v circuit.
How can you supply 220v machine to 208v supply?
Most 220 volt equipment will work on 208 volt supply. If the machine has a resistive load then the watts output will be lower than if supplied from a 220 volt source. If it is a motor load you will find that the equipment may run a bit slower but most motors will take the lower voltage. If the machine is a plug in device, install the appropriate receptacle to match the pin configuration and plug it in. If it is a hard wire installation this should be done by a qualified person.
How do you wire a 220v dryer to run on 110?
You can't. A 220 volt dryer requires 220 volts in order to operate properly. It will not run on 110 volts.
Is amp draw on a 220V motor per leg or combined?
Amp draw is always combined. 220V is uncertain if it is three phase or not, because there are both one phase and three phase applications of the 220V motor. In any case, the answer is always "combined".
How many bends in a conduit run would be required before the use of a pull box?
There has to be a pull box between every four quarter bends in a conduit run.
What size is a 220V socket box?
2 gang
Will a 220V 60Hz work on 220V 50Hz?
Yes no problem the transformer should run a little cooler as well.
Can you use the 220v 50hz appliances in 110v 60hz?
Depends. Some smaller stuff can usually run on both, in which case it will be printed on them. If it isn't, you can't run a 220v item on 110v.
What size wire required to run 5 amp 220v?
45
Can you install 220 volt outlets in American homes?
Yes. It is best to run a line from main breaker box to a separate 220V box with it's own breaker. You will need a licensed electrician to install if you are'NT comfortable doing this type of installation yourself.
Can 220v 50hz CPU computer run 220 60hz power supply?
No
I have a 1960 vintage Juke Box that runs on European 220v 50Hz power. Is there a device I can purchase that will convert US 110v 60Hz power to run this machine?
Yes, purchase a step-down transformer.
Can you plug a 220v deep fryer into a 110v outlet?
No. Attempting to run an appliance on insufficient voltage can cause damage to the appliance and can be dangerous. Call an electrician and get him to install a 220v plug
How do you run a clothes dryer line to a fuse box that has glass fuses if there are 2 in the box that are not being used?
It is recommended to hire a licensed electrician to run a new circuit for the clothes dryer from the fuse box. The unused glass fuses may not be rated for the higher current draw of the dryer and could potentially be a fire hazard. The electrician will be able to assess the existing setup and provide a safe and proper solution.
Can a Volt motor run on Volt?
Short answer: No. (unless you like ruining motors) Longer answer: Not really, but there are some motors that can be re-wired so that instead of 440v they will run on 220v. However, this is not that common. Conclusion: Check the motor to see if it is dual-voltage on it's nameplate. If it is, you can re-connect it to work on 220v. If it is NOT a dual-voltage motor, you will absolutely ruin it if you connect it to 220v.
Can you plug a 220v 50 hz refrigerator into a 220v 60Hz outlet?
No, the compressor& fan will run too fast and will more than likely be damaged. It may not be damaged but I would not take a chance.
What happens to 220v 50hz personal computer when connected to a 220v 60hz?
Unless the computer has a switch on the back allowing you to use both dual voltages and frequencies, the computers internal clock will run faster.
