What type of power does a power supply convert to?

A power supply is generally only converting the mains voltage down to a lower voltage suitable for low voltage equipment. It turns 120 v into 18v or 12v or 5v or any other voltage it is specified for. In most countries outside US, we have 220 volt AC in the mains. Power is however power. One could say that Voltage is the speed of which the power run. A power supply generally slows down the speed of electricity. Regards.


What are advantages power supply in computer?

The power supply converts the high voltage (e.g. 120VAC in US, 240VAC in Europe) alternating current house electricity supply down to the various different low voltage direct current supplies needed by different devices that make up the computer. These low voltage direct current supplies are tightly regulated in the power supply circuitry to prevent transients in the house electric supply from perturbing the computer's electronics as well as to compensate for variations in power demand as the different devices that make up the computer operate.


What does 100 to 240 V mean for use in the UK?

If "100 to 240 V" is stated on the rating plate of a small electrical appliance, such as an electric razor or a plug-in power supply for something else, that means it is designed to operate on any voltage between 100 Volts and 240 volts. * So the appliance will work if it is plugged into a 120 Volt household AC power supply in the US, Canada or elsewhere in the world which uses a similar supply and * it will also work on a 230 Volt household AC power supply in the UK or any other country in Europe or elsewhere in the world which uses a similar supply.


What is the power of a ciruit with 10 ohmns 10 volts and 2 amps?

Well, first of all, if the resistance of the circuit is 10 ohms and you connect 10 volts to it,then the current is 1 Amp, not 2 . So either there's something else in your circuit thatyou're not telling us about, or else the circuit simply doesn't exist.-- If you connect some voltage to some resistance, then the resistance heats up anddissipates (voltage)2/resistancewatts of power, and the power supply has to supply it.-- If there is some current flowing through some resistance, then the resistance heats up anddissipates (current)2 x (resistance)watts of power, and the power supply has to supply it.-- If there's a circuit with some voltage connected to it and some current flowingthrough it, then the resistance of the circuit is (voltage)/(current) ohms, the partsin the circuit heat up and dissipate (voltage) x (current) watts of power, andthe power supply has to supply it.There's no such thing as "the power of a circuit". The power supply supplies thecircuit with some amount of power, the circuit either dissipates or radiates someamount of power, and the two amounts are equal.


Can you change a US power supply on a PC to a UK power supply?

Yes. Most Power supplies don't care what frequency they run off, so 50 or 60 is not an issue. If your power supply has a voltage select switch on it, then you are all set: When you plug in to 220v, slide the switch across to 220/240V. If not, then you will have to swap the power supply for one that does. If your system uses a standard ATX PSU, then it is simple and cheap. If it uses a custom smaller one, then they are more expensive. The power supply will have a compliance label on it that will specify what it can use. Check that for full details. Many notebook power supplies can use anything that is vaguely electricity-like. Rub them on your woolly jumper fast enough and they'll probably work. Again, check the label.


What should be the setting for a dual-voltage selector switch on a power supply when using a computer in the US?

The 110VAC to 125VAC range (not the 220VAC to 250VAC range).


What voltage is the US Xbox 360 slim power supply Is it 100-127 volt like the previous 360s?

Ya....I just got one..

Can you use a PC bought in the US in UK?

Check the back; if the power supply has a switch that lets you select the voltage the PC can be used either in the US or Europe. If it DOESN'T have the switch, read the manufacturers literature to see what's required. you may need to replace the power supply, depending on what you have.


What voltage power tools can you use in Mauritius?

Mauritius uses 230 V @ 50 Hz (the US and Canada are 120 V @ 60 Hz)


Is the river friend or enemy?

I think its a friend because they help us get more water faster and can be use as a power supply, like hydro electric power it uses the river to generate power.


Will your US laptop work in the UK?

Not without a suitable mains adapter to charge the battery. The UK mains voltage is 230 Volts - the US mains runs at just 110 colts.
