If a wire has insulation that allows it to operate in a temperature of up 194 degrees Fahrenheit what temperature will the wire operate up to in degrees Celsius?
90 Degrees Celsius
If a wire has insulation that allows it to operate in a temperature of up to 194 degrees Fahrenheit what temperature will the wire operate uopt to in degrees celsius?
Use the formula: C = (5/9)(F-32) The answer is 90 degrees Celsius.
How do you change over to HEI distributor from points?
It's a fairly simple procedure. The biggest thing you have to do is run a 10-12 gauge wire to the hot side of the coil in the distributor. The original small wire to your coil isn't heavy enough. Just make sure to wire to something that is hot only when the key is turned on. Other than that, run the vacuum advance of the HEI to a ported vacuum....not the manifold vacuum that the point style uses. Basically any vacuum port on the carb that is above the base plate.

Why is there no neutral on a 240 cooktop?
A 240V cooktop does not have a neutral wire because it operates on a 240V split-phase system, where 240V is supplied by two hot wires, with no need for a neutral wire. The two hot wires provide the necessary power for the cooktop to operate efficiently.
How can you tell if you have a 240v cooktop No sticker on the old cooktop and new one requires 240. Fuse panel says 120v240v AC?
Does it have a big heavy wire, like your electric dryer, or a little light wire like your refrigerator. All electric cooktops that I know of are 240V. I have never seen one that is 120V.
How do you switch the voltage requirement for a cooktop from 208 volts to 110volts?
You don't. The cook top was designed to operate on 208 volts. This is the voltage needed to get the elements up to their rated wattage to do the cooking. Higher wattage appliances do not operate on the lower voltage because of the size of the wire that is needed to feed the appliance.
Can you connect the ground and neutral coming out of a cooktop to the ground of a nm8 2 wire?
No, the ground and neutral wires should not be connected together at the cooktop. The ground wire from the cooktop should be connected to the ground wire in the NM-B cable, and the neutral wire from the cooktop should be connected to the neutral wire in the NM-B cable. It is important to follow proper wiring practices to ensure safety and compliance with electrical codes.
What do I attach the house white neutral wire to if my Maytag electric cooktop has no neutral wire?
Just cap the white wire off and fold it up in the back of the box, out of the way.
Is 10'2 wire heavy enough for an electric stove?
No, a 10-gauge wire is not heavy enough for an electric stove. Stoves typically require a larger wire size, such as 8-gauge or 6-gauge wire, to safely handle the higher power demands of an electric stove. It's important to consult a qualified electrician to ensure the proper wire size is used for your specific stove.
Can you connect a bare wire from the cooktop to a green wire in a box?
No, you should not connect a bare wire from the cooktop to a green wire in a box. The green wire is typically the grounding wire and should be connected to the grounding system in the electrical installation. It's recommended to follow the manufacturer's guidelines and consult a qualified electrician for proper installation.
What is heavy copper wire used for?
Heavy copper wire is used for heavy current loads.
Why tungsten metal wire is not used in heater?
A heater does not get hot enough to benefit from the expense of using tungsten wire. Most heaters use either wire made of an alloy called nichrome or plated ceramic heating elements. Heaters generally operate at red or orange heat (i.e. 1409F to 1908F) and can use nichrome wire. Lightbulbs operate at white heat (i.e. greater than 2309F) and use tungsten wire, but tungsten is hard and expensive to make into wire compared to softer metals.
If a wire has insulation that allows it to operate in a temperature of up 194 degrees Fahrenheit what temperature will the wire operate up to in degrees Celsius?
90 Degrees Celsius
Have 240v 30amp breaker need to connect a 240volt 40 amp cooktop can you do this I have a 103 600volt wire the cooktop power supply requires 240volt 4 wire 60 hz?
Yes you can. As long as you don't use 40 amps. The 30 amp breaker may kick off if you use all things at once. So you are well protected but not up to code. The 4th wire required for the new stove is probably a ground fault wire. So run a new cable or cook slower.
Can you wire a 120V stove fan to the 240V supply?
No, it is not safe to wire a 120V fan to a 240V power supply. Doing so can damage the fan and pose a fire hazard. It's important to use appliances with the correct voltage rating to ensure proper operation and safety.
