You can use a 15 amp single pole breaker to convert your 30 amp double pole breaker to 15 amp 120v. Simply replace the 30 amp breaker with the 15 amp breaker in the circuit breaker panel. Make sure to match the wire size in the circuit with the appropriate amperage rating of the new breaker.
No, it is not safe to use a double pole 15 amp breaker in place of a 20 amp single pole breaker for a 12000 BTU air conditioner. The breaker size must match the electrical requirements of the appliance to prevent overheating and potential fire hazards. It is recommended to consult with a qualified electrician to ensure the proper breaker is used.
In North America this size breaker could be used on a welding machine. A range in the home would use a 40 amp two pole breaker.
No, a double pole 50 amp breaker protects a 240 volt supply at 50 amps. The number that is on the handle of the breaker is the amperage that the breaker will trip at if an overload occurs on the circuit.
No, you cannot use two separate 15 amp single pole breakers in place of a double pole 30 amp breaker. A double pole breaker is designed to simultaneously disconnect both circuit conductors, whereas using two single pole breakers would not provide the necessary protection for the circuit. It is important to use the correct size and type of breaker as specified by the electrical code for safety and functionality.
The appropriate double pole 30 amp breaker to use for a dryer installation is a 30 amp double pole circuit breaker.
You have a double pole breaker for 240Volt supply. The maximum current is 15 amp.
The maximum current rating of a 2 pole 25 amp breaker is 25 amps.
You can use a 15 amp single pole breaker to convert your 30 amp double pole breaker to 15 amp 120v. Simply replace the 30 amp breaker with the 15 amp breaker in the circuit breaker panel. Make sure to match the wire size in the circuit with the appropriate amperage rating of the new breaker.
AWG 12/2 requires the use of a 20 amp single pole breaker.
Yes.
No, it is not safe to use a double pole 15 amp breaker in place of a 20 amp single pole breaker for a 12000 BTU air conditioner.

For a 50 amp hot tub installation, a double-pole 50 amp breaker is required.
The maximum electrical load that can be safely handled by a 20 amp 2-pole breaker is 40 amps.
No, a double pole 50 amp breaker protects a 240 volt supply at 50 amps. The number that is on the handle of the breaker is the amperage that the breaker will trip at if an overload occurs on the circuit.
