What is more efficient to run a pool pump on 120 Volt or 240 Volt?
240
What size conduit and aluminum wire for a 400 foot run on a 120 240 volt system?
The key parameter in sizing wire is the current requirement. Once you know that you can look up value in a wire gauge table. The length of the run is important for longer runs because of the resistance of the wire itself. Aluminum wire requires a larger diameter than copper for the same current. Once you calculate the wire size you can then size the conduit.
Will 2.5mm wire conduct 240 volts?
You size wire by the current. Various insulations are rated for voltage, temperature and the medium where the wire will be run.
What size wire do you need to run 100 ft 75 amp 230 volt?
Depends on the size of the circuit which you did not list.
Does a 6 amp 240 volt appliance hook up to 110?
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.
How do you run 4 prong 240 volt outlet?
you must run the proper size wire based on the ampacity needed, wire must have four conductors including the gound
What wire size 240 volt 21 amps 150 foot run?
A #10 copper conductor will limit the voltage drop to 3% or less when supplying 21 amps for 150 feet on a 240 volt system.

How do you wire a 120 volt gfci into a 240 volt three wire?
You can't. The 120 volt GFCI is probably just a 2-wire (hot, neutral and ground) You would have to run a new 3-wire (2 hots, neutral and ground). The two hots are how you get the 240 volts (120+120=240). Also you must make sure the wire is gauged properly. #10 wire for 30 amps, #12 wire for 20 amps, etc.
What will happen if you run a 240 volt saw from a 110 volt supply?
It won't run.
Will 2.5mm wire conduct 240 volts?

What size wire do you need to run 100 ft 75 amp 230 volt?
Depends on the size of the circuit which you did not list.
What size wire is needed to run a 75 amp 240 volt circuit with 100 ft run?
For a 75 amp circuit with a 100 ft run, you would need a #4 AWG copper wire to ensure minimal voltage drop and to meet electrical code requirements. Using the correct wire size helps maintain the efficiency and safety of the circuit.
Does a 6 amp 240 volt appliance hook up to 110?
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.
What size wire do you need to run for 30 amp service to travel trailer 400 feet single phase 110 volt?
Presuming that you would like the least expensive installation, the following is calculated on overhead aluminum wire. The wire size needed to hold the voltage drop to 3% would be 3/0 MCM. If the installation could be run on 240 volts then the wire size can be reduced to #2.
What wire size for 100amp load for distance of 1000ft?
At that distance you will have a voltage drop of 81.25 volts if you use the recommended #6 wire on a 240 volt, 100 amp single phase circuit. Therefore I recommend you contact you electric utility and let them figure the voltage drop and the size wire required to safely run this distance. Using too small a wire can damage the electronics at the end of the run.
