== == You are not allowed to change a four-wire outlet to a three wire outlet.
You can change a four wire cord to a three wire cord.
That is VERY different! == I have answered this question at least 6 times. The 4 wire plug has a neutral and the 3 does not. An untrained homeowner who does their own Plumbing can flood the house with water or sewage, on the other hand electricity can kill instantly. I wouldn't want to gamble my family's lives on my incompetence.....pkazsr 3 wire plugs are old and outdated. Way back in the old days they didn't ground equipment so plugs didn't have a ground. (Remember the old 2 wire 110V outlets on houses built before the 50s?) A few people got killed so they decided to add a safety wire. It took them longer to catch on with heavy appliances, but eventually they did. That it what the fourth pin is. Since many homes still have the 3 wire plug it is allowed in older homes. New homes must use the new 4 wire plug. Changing your 4 wire cord to a 3 wire cord is the same as plugging a 3 wire 120V appliance into one of those 3 prong to two prong adapters they sell. Your appliance works now, but is ungrounded. Don't listen to anyone who says to replace the new up-to-code plug with an older plug. That is the same as replacing your 3 prong 120V outlets with old two prong outlets! Ignore anyone who tells you to do so, they think they know a lot more than they actually do. Buy a new cord. It is cheap and safer.
The first thing you do is make sure the power is off before you work on any part of this project. Water and electricity and people don't mix very well. You could easily die. I'm serious. You can get a little shock from changing a light switch, but if you're grounded through water or a metal pipe, you could die from that same amount of current that gave you a little shock when you weren't grounded. It sounds like you're trying to convert a dryer outlet to a sauna power source. You'll need to replace the outlet with a hard-wired connection (you take off the outlet and put a blank cover on the junction box) in that junction box and extend it with 14/2 (with ground) wire to wherever your sauna is. Then you wire your sauna to the new wire. Here's the important part: YOU HAVE TO CHANGE THE OLD BREAKER SUPPLYING THIS CIRCUIT
WITH A NEW, 240 VOLT 15 AMP TWO POLE BREAKER. If you're not fully conversant with electrical work, I wouldn't attempt this job. It could mean your life, or the life of one of your family members. Or you could all die when your house burns down. Whatever. Spending a couple hundred bucks on an electrician is worth it. Use angieslist.com so you don't get ripped off.
IF YOU ARE NOT ALREADY SURE YOU CAN DO THIS JOB
SAFELY AND COMPETENTLY
REFER THIS WORK TO QUALIFIED PROFESSIONALS.
If you do this work yourself, always turn off the powerat the breaker box/fuse panel BEFORE you attempt to do any work AND always use a meter or voltage indicator to insure the circuit is, in fact, de-energized.
Yes, it is not recommended to cover a microwave outlet as it needs proper ventilation for safety reasons. Blocking the outlet can lead to overheating and potential fire hazards.
Plugging a lower drain machine into a higher drain outlet is perfectly fine, the outlet will be able to deliver all that the machine needs. And the machine will only use up what it needs, so having excess at the outlet isn't going to hurt anything. The other way around, a machine pulling more than the outlet can deliver, will trip the breaker or blow the fuse.
Yes, a 180W power adapter can be used with a 110W outlet. The wattage of the adapter represents the maximum power it can supply, but it will only draw the power it needs from the outlet. Just ensure that the voltage of the outlet matches the voltage rating of the power adapter to avoid any issues.
You can use a power bar that needs 1500 watts or less.
Because it's screwed up and needs to be replaced. Recommend calling an electrician.
If it is leaking it needs replacing. If you have no heat and the inlet heater hose is hot and the outlet is cool, it is stopped up and may need replacing, if it cannot be flushed out.
A device that needs a 25 amp outlet requires a NEMA 6-30 or NEMA 6-50 electrical outlet.
An engine block heater for a 2004 Hyundai Tiburon is a part of the engine that helps keep the engine warm when it is very cold outside. It has a plug that needs to be plugged into an electric outlet when the car has to sit in the cold weather.
You know the heater hose on a vehicle needs replacing when it beings to swell and soften. The heater hose runs from the intake manifold to the heater core.
A device that needs a 60 amp plug requires a special type of electrical outlet called a 60 amp outlet.
A device that needs a 25 amp plug requires a special type of electrical outlet known as a NEMA 6-30 outlet.
To find a reliable split outlet for your electrical needs, consult a licensed electrician to assess your requirements and recommend a suitable outlet. Ensure the outlet meets safety standards and is installed correctly to prevent electrical hazards.
A device that needs a 220 20 amp plug requires a special type of electrical outlet called a NEMA 6-20 outlet.
A device that needs a 20 amp 220 plug requires a special type of electrical outlet called a NEMA 6-20 outlet.
This era gm vehicle was famous for having clogged heater core problems. Part of the problem is the the 'dexcool' coolant used. It gels up in the heater core, and needs to be forced cleaned with a strong water spray. This is easily done by a mechanic. They will disconnect the inlet and outlet of the heater core, hook up a hose to the inlet or outlet, and blast away. The symptom you describe could also be a faulty Thermostat. Good luck!!
have you checked the fuses? if so, maybe the heater core needs replacing
it could be the thermostat needs to be changed or the heater core needs to be flushed out.these would be the cheaper things to try first.
