How can you convert a 240V clothes dryer to 120V? Hire an electrician to install for you a 240 line. I agree with Tim. You need a dedicated circuit for a dryer. The wiring is larger and you cannot NEMA 5 is the most common household electrical outlet. These are used to supply 120V (15 – 30A) with a ground prong in the center – either at the top or bottom of the socket, depending on how it is installed. The two vertical prongs supply hot and neutral. NEMA 6 designates 208 and 240V outlets (15 – 50A). How single-phase dual-voltage motors are switched between 240 and 120 volts.http://woodgears.ca/motors/voltage.html P=E^2/R, so the power generated in each lamp, which in an incandescent lamp. is used to cause the filament to glow, will be, relative to the power. generated when connected to 240 volts, 110^2/240^2 or 12100/57600 which is. approx 0.21. So your two lamps connected in parallel to 110 volts will. templdl. Looks like it's a piece of cake to me. To install the 480v delta-240v delta transformer as a step up, simply terminate your 240 3ph source at X1, X2, and X3 bring the EGC along to bond to the enclosure. . Ignore X4 if you have one and confirm that it is not bonded to the enclosure. Anon. It is indeed possible to convert a line voltage thermostat-controlled heater to use a low voltage room thermostat. The basic approach is to buy a switching relay that is operated by the low-voltage thermostat and that in turn turns on the 120VAC or 240VAC heaters. I would have assumed OP meant "convert the 120V outlet to a 240v outlet" which would give twice the power at the same current. US wiring delivers 240V to the panel but also a line from a center-tap transformer that lets it act as two 120V "legs." The 240V source is already there, but rewiring in the panel is required. I spoke to my contact at Valterra and found that the # A10-5030FBK steps down a 50 amp service receptacle (2 X 120VAC) to 30 amps supply. This would work great for your camping trailers electrical system. I have linked the above mentioned product to this page for your convenience. expert reply by: Jackie C.
