Best Answer

A 220 outlet will have one neutral (white) and two hots (black and red normally) just use the neutral and just one of the two hot wires. Careful where you do this because normal 110 breakers are 15 or 20 amp and normally 220 breakers tend to be either 30 amp for a dryer or 50 amp for a stove.

Can I use 110 volt led light on 220 volts?

Yes. 110 and 220 plugs are different so that you cannot plug a 110 recepticle into a 220 outlet and vice versa. If a home is wired for 220 it means that the potential is there for 220 recepticles. Your oven and clothes dryer require 220.


How do you modify a 3-phase electric range for a 4-phase outlet?

First off, it is not a 3-phase range. It is a single phase 110/220V range with a cord lacking a ground pin. Also, it is not a 4 phase outlet. It is a modern 110/220V outlet with a ground pin. To upgrade your range, go th the hardware store and buy a new 4-prong 50A 110/220V cord with a ground. Remove the old cord, and wire in the new cord. If the old cord was flat without a color code, the two outside wires are the hots (red and black on the new cord) and the center wire is neutral (white on the new cord). If the neurtal lug is bonded to the chassis, break the bond. The green wire in the new cord grounds the chassis. Connect the green wire to a convient screw in the chassis, if a dedicated green ground screw is not provided.
