This is for DIY connecting a 110v 60HZ solard inverter from 12v DC battery to 110v AC 60HZ output. Using a CL04-12 Microwave diode that I already own. I want to know if this diode is right for this.
I want to protect my inverter while I use the electric power from electrical power Co.
And what...
Ok, i am new in this forum I am looking for some enlightenment. Today I got a call from my boss, which is now in Venezuela and he is connecting a 4000W 100v power plant at his condo. The electrician he found there connected a 2 Throw Switch Knife to the circuit to split the power coming from the...
Hi,
I have taken over a design engineering job for industry.
The design is using a 400V/110V transformer. Usually, the 110V is single phase. However, in this case it is giving 110V 3 phase 32A.
The 110v 3 phase is for use with 4P 110V socket to run a pump.
Being in the UK, I am used to...
Hello,
Anyone know of any RCDs for CTE 110v sockets that dont cost a small fortune? Need some for some high EFL 110v sockets in a factory I do work in after an EICR.
I am abandoning an oven/microwave location that has an existing 220v 40amp (4-wire) circuit. I am leaving the wiring in place. I want to use the new counter space for a built-in microwave oven and coffee station.
Can I use one of the 110v circuits in the junction box for a 110v 20amp receptacle...
I have a whole house 110v sewage pump. Manufacturer says it needs 5 times the operating current for start up. That's 7000 watts. I plan on getting a 8500 watt inverter generator and manual transfer panel...
I am an experienced DIYer (build my own house etc) and I’ve offered to help a friend in France. However, all my power tools are 230v. Could I use a safety transformer in reverse to convert the local 110v to 240v?
I need to install a 110V outlet in my fireplace for a zero clearance insert.
There is an exsiting outlet 4 feet to the left of the fireplace. I would like to drill through the side of the fireplace into the wall space and run the wire to the outlet.
Given the insert is zero clearance, are...
I recently brought a 110v aircompressor but when I brought it I was told I could run it through a transformer box as i work on site which worked fine for a month but now the transformer box keeps tripping and has even blown the fuse in the plug.
Am I right to run it through a transformer box...
Hi guys is there any regulations regarding 110v centre tapped transformer transformer circuits being used outside (rcd protected) also if the transformer states 3000Va but a continuous rating of 1650Va am I right in thinking it can only carry 15amps before the transformer overloads?
Hi guys, I was looking, to if possible purchase a tile saw from the us. Can this be made compatible with our 240v supply? Any help would be greatly appreciated. Thanks
Installing a wall mounted transformer.
Single phase with 2 x 16 amp sockets
Input connections are 240v 220v 0v 10v
Output/secondary side 55v 0v 55v
Whay would the connections regarding the input/primary side live neutral earth.
The 10v is throwing me off
I need to learn more about testing 110v stuff. Can only find one Seaward video on YouTube about testing a transformer! Any other sources? For example - how to test 110v extension leads etc.
I have a 20w 110v LED.
when i connect leads to the L and N posts the light works!
when I turn it off, there is still a very faint energizing of the LED.
the power plug has only two prongs and no ground.
Does the FAT prong correspond to the L or the N?
Just trying to try get my head round these 110v wall mounted transformer I have come across. How comes the second side is unfused? Is there any regs on this?
I know the primary usually has has a thermal cut out (is this just purely so we cannot overload and draw too much from the...
Hello,
First time poster, long time reader. I have a small fan/heater combo unit as I'm building out an incubator. The unit I received is 125w 110v AC power that has 4 wires that go into a male 4 pin connector. 2 wires operate the hot plate and 2 wires operate the fan. How can I convert...
I'm ready for the abuse but I think I'm having a brain fart.... I'm fabricating a small centrifuge oil panel, all materials are here for me, it's my first foray into panel building and there isn't anyone to ask really, without getting a faceful of abuse.
So they've supplied me a 415v to 110v...
Got this viper shop vac from a friend. It has a 1@0v plug on it...is it possible to get it to work at standard plug ?

Hi all
Hope everyone are well.
Silly question, I have a hotel hoover 220 used but I need a hoover in 110v.
Can it be converted to run on 110v?
Have included a pic of power rating.
Thank you.
