You know the old saying: "If you have to ask..."! If you're asking this question, you should probably be calling an electrician. The answer to your question depends upon what you are trying to power up. This will determine what size wire you will need and therefore, the size of the circuit needed.
What else can I help you with?
If you have low voltage lights in your yard and you want to install a decorative street lamp how do you increase the voltage to power the 120V street lamp?
you don't run a new 120 line
What is involved in running a 240V dryer line if you have a regular 120V line now?
You will have to install a double pole breaker in the fuse panel and then run new wire (10/3) to the location of the dryer and install the proper plug. You will need a 4 prong plug; the older 3 wire plugs no longer meet code for new work.
What is the line voltage between two lines?
the voltage between 1 line & phase =120v The voltage between 2 line =240
What has more resistance on a 120v line --- a 1400 W microwave or a 150 w electric can opener?
To determine which device has more resistance on a 120V line, we can use Ohm's Law (R = V^2 / P). For the microwave: R = (120V)^2 / 1400W = 10.29 ohms. For the can opener: R = (120V)^2 / 150W = 96 ohms. Therefore, the 150W electric can opener has more resistance than the 1400W microwave.
How deep do you install a yard water hydrant?
Not a plumber however I do know it varies buy region. You need to know the depth of the freeze line in your area. That will determine the depth to install your hydrant.
Why are you not getting 240v between the two hot wires?
Because they are "in-phase". In order to get 240v, you need two 120v Alternating Current lines that are 180° out of phase, that is, opposite phases. Only when one line is +120v and the other -120v will you see 240v between the wires.
How can I efficiently run electricity to my shed?
To efficiently run electricity to your shed, you can hire a licensed electrician to install a dedicated electrical line from your main electrical panel to the shed. This will ensure that the electricity is safely and properly connected to your shed.
What is the correct 120v line voltage thermostat wiring diagram for installation?
The correct wiring diagram for a 120v line voltage thermostat installation typically involves connecting the line and load wires to the appropriate terminals on the thermostat. It is important to follow the manufacturer's instructions and consult a professional if needed to ensure proper installation and safety.
Can you lose 240v but not 120v from main power line to house?
Yes, it is possible to lose 240V while still having 120V from the main power line to a house. This can occur if there is a fault or disconnection in one of the phases supplying the 240V circuit, which typically consists of two 120V lines. If one phase is lost, the 120V circuits connected to that phase will be affected, but the circuits on the other phase may still function normally. However, this situation can lead to unbalanced loads and potential issues with appliances.
What is the relationship between an electrical line and load in a circuit?
In a circuit, the electrical line provides power to the load, which is the device using the electricity. The line carries the electrical current to the load, allowing it to operate. The load consumes the electrical energy provided by the line to perform its intended function.
What will happen when the shunt motor is connected across the supply line directly?
If the motor is designed for 120V or 220V whatever the case, it will function properly.If it is a 12V motor and you supply 120V it will make a mess and you will probably get hurt from flying debris!
How do you install a fuel pump on a 1990 Isuzu pickup?
disconnect the fuel lines, supply and return, and vapor line and disconnect electrical connector and drop the gas tank. Drain it first.
