They sell "cheap Chinese" step-down transformers in the $100 range on Amazon, but these are dangerous twice - first because they are junk, but second because they are not designed to step down US 240V, and will give a "hot neutral" on their output, which is bad. Still, it'll be cheaper than buying a legitimate and safe step-down transformer. you'd be paying mostly for mobilization (driving to your location) and the value of experience. It's 20 minutes of work, mostly to get familiar with the wiring so you know what to do.īut it's that kind of deal. Change the receptacle to a NEMA 5-20 type, and move 1 wire inside the service panel that supplies this circuit. What you have here is a very simple conversion. $990 for knowing which bolt to turn." Have an electrician re-wire that for 120V Shop GE - AHV05LZ - GE 115 Volt Smart Room Air Conditioner-AHV05LZ by GE at Appliance Alliance GE Appliances Visit our showroom or call (610) 983-9161. The company said "$1000!? You turned 1 bolt! Can we have this itemized?" The old worker said "OK. The worker came right out, inspected and listened to the machine for 10 minutes, turned one bolt, and said "There you go. So they called one of the old workers, who now ran a consulting business.
They had let the experienced old workers go, and hired all younger kids. Some have slanted and some straight verticle prongs but all are more massive in construction.There's an old joke about the company whose giant machine was not working. They come in a variety of configerations so that you must match the plug to the recepticle.
There are 240 plugs available for higher current and power needs such as Air Conditioners. Standard Plugs in this voltage range may be called 110, 115, or 120 vac. Normal voltage supplied here in the USA is 60 cycle 110-120 volts AC(alternating current). The Plug connects into the Recepticle and makes a good electrical connection between the house wiring and the appliance. The verticle slot(shorter slot) to the right is considered HOT(Voltage applied) and the one to the left is considered COMMON (return). There are two verticle slots side by side above and a round hole slot just under if a ground is included in the recepticle. It is made to receive a plug from another appliance in order to be powered by electric current. This rectangular recepticle is normally covered with a plastic plate for beauty and protection. Since I cannot include a mini pic may I suggest you take a look at any electrical wall outlet (ac recepticle) found in your home that you plug appliances or a lamps into. It has the two slit lookings things on either side and usually a third hole for the ground. 120V is the AC voltage on a single hot wire in your home with respect to neutral (or ground). This can be confusing but the bottom line is they are referring to the exact same thing. You'll often hear voltages in your home referred to as 110V, 115V, or 120V. 115 and 120 volt receptacles or outlets are the normal outlets that you plug everyday items into. Voltage Differences: 110V, 115V, 120V, 220V, 230V, 240V.
