Can you use 240 volts with a 120 volt supply?

No, it is not possible to use 240 volts with a 120 volt supply directly. You would need a transformer to step up the voltage from 120 volts to 240 volts. Attempting to use 240 volts with a 120 volt supply without a transformer can damage equipment and pose a safety hazard.


How do you use the voltage multiplier to get 27 volts out of one 9 volts battery?

You can only do that with a transformer. Or you can wire three 9 volt batteries in series to get 27 volts.


How do I make a 30 amp 250 volt line output only 220 volts at 30 amps?

you get a transformer...


How do you convert 115 volt into 230 volt?

The only way to do that is with a transformer. They make inline transformers that convert 230 to 115 and they simply plug in inline.


How do you get 240 volts out of a 110 outlet?

You cannot get 240 volts from a 110-volt outlet without using a transformer or having a dedicated 240-volt outlet installed. It is not safe or recommended to modify the outlet to achieve this.


How to convert 440 VOLTS to 380 VOLTS?

You can use a transformer to step down the voltage from 440 volts to 380 volts. Make sure to use a transformer that is rated for the required input and output voltage, and have a qualified electrician perform the installation for safety.


Can you get 110 volts from 277volts?

The voltage of 277 is the wye connection of a 480 volt three phase supply. The only way to reduce 277 to 120 volts is with a step down transformer.


How do you get 12 volts from an 18 volt transformer?

Reduce the primary voltage and the secondary will also drop.


How Convert 9 volt to 230 volt?

Converting 9 volts to 230 volts would require a pretty hardcore step up transformer (Expensive) and you probably wouldn't have enough current to sustain the load.See discussion page for more information.


How can you get a 240V single-phase power from a 120V 3-phase service?

First of all there is no common three phase 120 volt service. There is in North America a three wire 120/240 volt single phase service. That being said, if you want to change a 120 volt source to 240 volts it must be done with a transformer. Its classification is a step up transformer. The primary side of the transformer H1 - H2 will be connected to the 120 volts. The secondary side of the transformer X1 - X2 will be connected to the 240 volt load. The transformer is sized by the current required by the 240 volt load.


Is it safe to run a 220 volt AC to 12 volt DC step down transformer in a 110 volt outlet and will it transform it to 6 volts or will it run at 12 volts?

Since there is an AC to DC converter in there, it's hard to say. If it's a basic transformer to rectifier to capacitor design it will put out 6 volts. If it is a transformer to a voltage regulator it's hard to say what will happen. Certainly the drive voltage to the regularor will be cut in half. It may or may not run, but won't be able to run at 12 volts because there won't be any 12 volts to drive the regulator. (There will only be 6 volts.) If it is a switcher it may work fine or it may do nothing.


Do you need a transformer to run a 575 volt machine on 480 volts?

Yes, you would typically need a transformer to step up the voltage from 480 volts to 575 volts in order to safely run a machine that requires 575 volts. Operating the machine at a lower voltage than specified can lead to performance issues and potential damage.
