The voltage of 277 volts is the wye voltage of a three phase 480 volt distribution. In the 480 volt CDP (Central Distribution Panel), you will need a 600 volt rated single pole 15 amp breaker installed in the CDP. The load will be connected to the output terminal of the breaker and the other conductor will be connected to the neutral bus in the CDP. The minimum size conductor for the 15 amp circuit will be a #12 copper conductor.
A 240 volt street light circuit is wired in parallel connections. In the base of the street fixture an inline fuse is connected into the circuit that goes up to the fixture to protect the lamp head.

A simple circuit has three resistors connected in series. The resistors are 14 ohms 12 ohms and 9 ohms. What is the total resistance of the circuit?
Because the white wire on a 120 volt circuit is the neutral wire that is connected to the silver screw on outlets and switches. It is connected to the neutral bar in the service panel.
LxW of building x 3 volt amps per sq. foot
No, it would overheat, might blow the fuse, otherwise it might catch fire.
No. You need to rewire the circuit from the electric panel.
Yes, to the precision you can measure it. If it isn't you need to check the ground to neutral bonding at main panel and check the wiring in the circuit for loose connections.
The furnace can be but it is not a good idea. Safety code requires a disconnect switch outside the area where the furnace is situated. This switch is used for an emergency shut down in case something electrically goes wrong with the furnace. In modern homes these furnaces are wired to a dedicated 120 volt circuit from the distribution panel. From the panel, the circuit is routed to the safety switch. From the safety switch, the circuit then continues to the furnace load.

No, a single-phase oven cannot be wired to a three-phase circuit without a transformer. The electrical systems are incompatible and may result in damage to the oven or the circuit. It is recommended to use the appropriate circuit or consult with a licensed electrician for proper installation.

You can't get 230 from a 440 panel. You'll need a step down trandormer
A volt can not be connected to a circuit.
For a 10 amp, 250 volt circuit, you should install a circuit breaker rated for at least 10 amps and 250 volts. A common option would be a single-pole, 10 amp circuit breaker designed for 240-250 volt applications. Be sure to check the specifications and compatibility with your specific electrical panel.
No, if they are wired in series you have 36 volts assuming each battery is a 12 volt battery. They will have to be wired in parallel to output 12 volts. In that case you can charge them with a 12 volt charger but it will take 3 times as long as charging just one 12 volt battery.
A circuit breaker for a 110 volt system typically resembles a rectangular switch within a breaker box or electrical panel. It may have a switch or lever that can be toggled to the "on" or "off" position to control the flow of electricity in the circuit. The amperage rating on the breaker will indicate how much current it can safely handle before tripping to protect the circuit from overload.
