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.
A 60VA transformer can run only one 50W bulb.
Answer for countries in Europe and other world areas running a 50 Hz power supply service. This depends on the the light or globe, if you can replace just the globe its very simple. change over the globe and buy yourself a mains(230v or 115v) to 12v isolation transformer, and attach that to the mains cable and run a cable from the 12v to the globe and away you go. The description of how to change the mains to 12v is the same if you have to replace the whole light. Then you just have to replace the globe or the whole light assembly.
No; drawing more than the rated amperage from a transformer will cause it to overheat.
The power lost by hysteresis depends on the peak flux density in the core. If the transformer is getting hot even when on no load, it should be run at a lower voltage.
As well as providing a cooling medium, transformer oil is also used to insulate a transformer. As its dielectric strength (how well it insulates) is much higher than air, it means that components within a transformer that are at different potentials can be placed much closer together if they are immersed in oil. So, operating an oil-filled transformer without oil will likely cause insulation breakdown within the transformer.

Most pool lights are 12v ac and run off a transformer so no need to ground
no
No. The ignition needs 12v to run, the starter needs 12v to crank, the bulbs all need 12v to get bright enough...
If you have a transformer with an output adequate to run the motor, use it directly for the supply to the motor control circuitry. Remember when dealing with motors, the start current will be about 300% of the full load running amperage. Size the transformer accordingly.
Yes, a 12v device can typically be safely operated using a 13.8v power source. The slight increase in voltage should not damage the device. However, it's always a good idea to check the device's specifications to ensure it can handle a higher input voltage.
No, the supplies output is too small. To run a 550mA device a supply source of 600mA and larger would be needed.
Yes! volts x amps = Watts 600Watts / 110volts = 5.45 amps. So if your TV uses less than that, which I'm sure it does you are o.k.
A step-down transformer U really don't need a step up or stepdown transformer You need a source capable to run your LED it can be a swithcing power supply for istance a battery
Yes, you can purchase a replacement transformer for an 80 watt outdoor low voltage lighting system. Make sure to check the specifications and compatibility with your existing system before purchasing a new transformer. You can find replacement transformers at hardware stores, lighting stores, or online retailers specializing in outdoor lighting supplies.
To convert DC (battery) to AC to run household appliances you need an "inverter". Because they are usually hooked up to a car battery (12V) they can't provide too much power. Usually enough to run lights, a small refrigerator, TV or laptop computer OR similar low power equipment.
The main difference is the capacity or energy storage of the batteries. A 12V 7AH battery can store up to 7 amp-hours of energy, whereas a 12V 12AH battery can store up to 12 amp-hours of energy. This means the 12AH battery can provide more power or run for a longer duration compared to the 7AH battery.
