What voltages does a computer's power supply convert 120 volts of alternating current from a wall outlet into?
A personal computer's power supply receives 120 volts of AC and converts it to 3.3, 5, 12 volts of DC power.Another answerThe secondary voltage could be any number of voltages depending on what the power supply was designed for. Your best bet is to get a DC voltmeter and measure the output voltage of each wire on the output side.
Is a power supply an electrical transformer that regulates the electricity used by the computer?
Yes it is.
How much does a power supply unit cost?
Computer power supplies will vary depending on the voltage needs of your computer. A general rule is the more components a computer has, the larger power supply it will require and the costlier the supply. Average prices range from $50 to $300.
What provides power to the internal components of the computer?
In the case of a desktop computer a power supply that in turn plugs into a household outlet provides power to the internal components of the computer. In the case of a laptop or tablet a battery provides power.
What is fuction of power supply?
The power supply makes the computer run, without any type of power supply it would be impossible to run a computer. The mains power supply for a laptop and the power supply unit of a desk top, both convert the high AC voltage from the mains power and convert it to low voltage DC, for the electronics of a computer to use.
What is power supply?
If it is a computer power supply it is the box that gives the computer its power from the outlet.
What parts are needed to create a circuit?
A basic electrical circuit needs a voltage supply (battery or household outlet), wiring to carry electrons to and from the voltage supply to the load, and a load (motor, light, heat element, stereo, blender, whatever).
Which electrical test requires the supply to be energized?
Testing of an electrical circuit for voltage requires the supply to be energized.
How much voltage does a wall outlet supply?
Usually 110 volts
What should be used to save a computer from damage by sudden increases in voltage?
A surge protector device. This is placed inline between the computer and the mains supply - and 'smoothes out' the power coming from the outlet socket.
How much voltage does a wall outlet usually supply?
Usually 110 volts
What is a electrical outlet?
The definition of an outlet in Article 100 of the National Electrical Code book (US) is: "Outlet. A point on the wiring system at which current is taken to supply utilization equipment." You can have a receptacle outlet, lighting outlet, or some other hardwired equipment outlet. <<>> The definition of an outlet in Section 0 (Object, Scope and Definitions) of the Canadian Electrical Code book is: "Outlet. A point in the wiring installation at which current is taken to supply utilization equipment."
Should i use voltage stabilizer for my computer though have ups?
if you are using UPS then no need to use stabilizer.because your computer gets supply from ups after many process,even if you are getting fro ups.when outlet power is available ups in online mode and it feeds your computer from direct supply authority,but ups has some design to stabilize this voltage,
What is the electrical voltage are supplied by the power supply on your system?
The electric voltage are energy to my system.
What provides energy to circuit?
One possibility for what affects the voltage, is how many light bulbs, motors etc you have in the circuit causing the energy ( voltage ) to be shared.
What is the definition of a 110v outlet?
A 120 V outlet is the standard residential and commercial electrical outlet for North America. When additional electrical power is needed, other outlet options are available, but typically, one or more duplex (meaning double, or two outlets) receptacle is installed in every residential and commercial room.
