How many amps will a 260 ohms resistor on a 120 volt circuit use?
Just use Ohm's Law Voltage = Current x Resistance Amps = Voltage Divided By Resistance Amps = 120 / 260
Can you run fan on dc?
If you mean by that a normal home ceiling fan, No, you can't. Because it is an AC motor inside that. If you use fans using DC motors ,motors like the ones used in many toys for example or the ones used inside the earlier cassette or vcr tape drives, yes ,you can use DC.
How much electrical energy does electric fan with a power rating of 100 watts use in 1 hour?
It varies tremendously depending upon the size of the fan and the power of the motor. The best way to answer your question would probably be to look at the back of the fan, or on the bottom. It usually will tell how many watts the fan draws. If it only tell amps and volts, remember that watts = amps X volts. Remember that watts does not have a time component; so to say that it draws a certain number of watts in an hour is not correct. You should rather ask, "How many watt-hours does it consume in an hour?" That is the number of watts times the number of hours that it drew that number of watts.
Problem this fan draws 30 amps for an instant to start then settles to 10 amps Can a capacitor be used in line to take the load off the switch and provide the extra amps needed to start the fan?
Not really, unless you have a capacitor start type of motor. Capacitors can be very hazardous if improperly connected to mains power and I wouldn't suggest your trying it if you're not experienced or qualified. Best bet is just to get a heavier swicth or use a heavy duty switching relay.
How many amps does a 50 horse power electric motor use?
Need to know the voltage of the motor.
How many amps does a ceiling fan typically use?
A ceiling fan typically uses around 0.5 to 2.5 amps of electricity.
How many amps does a ceiling fan use when in operation?
A ceiling fan typically uses around 0.5 to 2.5 amps when in operation.
How many amps are in a ceiling fan?
The fan itself might use 40 Watts, add to that the power used by the lamps (maybe 3*50 Watts) and the sum is just under 200 W when all the lamps are lit. So under one Ampere in the example given.
How much input current is being provided to ceiling fans?
If you can find the wattage of the fan and you know the voltage of the fan use the following equation. Amps = watts/volts.
Can you use a dimmer switch on a ceiling fan?
Yes, you can use a dimmer switch on a ceiling fan as long as it is specifically designed for use with ceiling fans. Regular dimmer switches are not recommended for use with ceiling fans as they can cause damage to the fan motor.
How can I install a ceiling fan on a sloped ceiling using a ceiling fan sloped ceiling adapter?
To install a ceiling fan on a sloped ceiling, you can use a ceiling fan sloped ceiling adapter. This adapter allows the fan to be mounted securely on the angled ceiling, ensuring proper installation and function. Follow the manufacturer's instructions carefully to safely install the adapter and the ceiling fan on the sloped ceiling.
How can I install a ceiling fan on an angled ceiling?
To install a ceiling fan on an angled ceiling, you will need a ceiling fan mounting kit specifically designed for angled ceilings. Follow the manufacturer's instructions carefully, ensuring the fan is securely attached to a ceiling joist or support beam. Use a level to ensure the fan is properly balanced and test it thoroughly before use.
Can you use a ceiling fan switch on a 12 volt motor?
yes it should do as long as its not using more than 30 amps if its a big motor then it would burn out eventually
What are some tips for installing a slanted ceiling fan in a room with a sloped ceiling?
When installing a slanted ceiling fan in a room with a sloped ceiling, make sure to use a fan specifically designed for sloped ceilings. Ensure the fan is securely mounted to a ceiling fan-rated electrical box and use a downrod to adjust the fan's height. Check that the blades are balanced and the fan is properly aligned for optimal performance.
What are the best installation tips for an angled ceiling fan?
When installing an angled ceiling fan, make sure to use a ceiling fan mounting kit designed for sloped ceilings. Ensure the fan is securely attached to the ceiling and use a balancing kit to prevent wobbling. Check the fan's rotation direction for optimal air circulation.
What size light bulb should I use for my ceiling fan?
For a ceiling fan, it is recommended to use a light bulb that is no larger than 60 watts to prevent overheating and potential damage to the fan.
What gauge wire should be used for installing a ceiling fan?
For installing a ceiling fan, it is recommended to use a 14-gauge wire.
