I've got a 220v outlet in my kitchen that was installed to support a large oven. We downsized and I only need a 110V outlet now. Will this do the job?

I would think so, however, I'm not an electrician, but look at the connection. My 220v outlet in my garage doesn't have the same connection as this one.

this is a 30 amp connection most circut breakers are 20 or 25amp this is more for high current like 1 line off a gennerator or contractor running equipment this is for over 2000 watts Also this is good if you run a very long cord the longer the cordthe lower gauge you will need to run something that uses lot of power, like 1800 watt hair blow dryer or electric heater

Not sure why someone would recommend a L14-30P plug for an L5-30P outlet? The line from the geni L5-30p is split into (3) 15 amp outlets. Not sure why someone said it is illegal... You need to use an L5-30p plug for the line. I have a Champion generator this would work on. It has the L5-30p outlet, it is used for home back-up and some people use it for RV generator power.

NO!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! The does not change the voltage and will not fit a 220v stove outlet, this is to divide a 30Amp generator outlet which you would normally hook up to a cut off to feed select circuits in your house into 3 10 amp outlets. If you do not understand how electricity works call an electrician before you kill somebody or burn your house down or both.

This plug will not turn a 220v supply into 110v. You will need electrical experience to disconnect one of the 220v wires to accomplish this. See: http://www.diychatroom.com/f18/convert-220v-110v-26799/

Very scary plug here! Because this is an L5-30P plug. the only way to get 110v out of the outlet would be to use the ground wire as the common, and that's dangerous and illegal. Here is a cable that requires the L14-30P plug, which WILL allow for 110v. Coleman Cable 01934 3-Feet Generator Power Cord Adapter, 10/4 Splitter Y Adapter, L14-30P to (2) 10/3 Lighted 5-20R But it's all dependent on your available plug.

I am not 100% sure but if your adapter would allow for the conversion to a regular 110 outlet it should work. Hope this helps

This converter is actually made to reduce power from 220v outlets/output to 100-120v so you do not overload and "fry" your appliance. Your heater may work on 110-120v but not as effectively or efficiently as it would on 220v's.

If 220V is what the average house is wired for, than I would say yes. I plugged mine into an electrical outlet and it works great.

I do not understand the question. You do not need 220. Your regular electric outlet should service you just fine.

yes, this plug is just to adapt the plug. Be sure to switch the 120 to 220 when in other country. If you are using something that is not dual voltage you will need a converter also.

We have this, and we plug it I to a regular 110 outlet and have no problem. Great tool!

The adapter worked beautifully for me. The converter is not needed if you look very carefully at the plugs on your appliances. Reading the fine print most new items will convert automatically and all that is needed is the adapter. You will see it will work on either the 110 or 230-240 volt and all that is needed is the adapter. In fat one hotel had the converter/adapter built in and I just plugged it into the wall like at home.

This is 120v ONLY. 220v runs large items like ranges and air conditioners. If you really need 220v, maybe try commercial suppliers.

No, because it plugs into a 110 volt outlet and wouldn't fit a 220 volt outlet which is different.

Yes it should be enough. I'm using mine to convert 220 into 110 with a power of 1400, works perfectly.

NO! you can not plug a 110v appliance into a 220v line, you will burn it out. You would need a step down transformer or just use one leg of the 220 line. An electrician can do that for you.

This product is not a voltage converter - it is simply a power distribution strip. The plug is designed to directly fit a 220 V receptacle, and will distribute 220 VAC to all of the outlets on the strip. It does adapt to several plug styles, but the device would need to be dual voltage capable.

I think you would need an adaptor for the country you are in, but you could double-check with the company. Do not use a receptacle for a stove or dryer, for instance.

Hello, I don't really know if it works with 220v, I only have 110v outlets and it works flawlessly.

Of course it will. With the use of a 220V bulb only half the current is flowing when compared to a 110V bulb with the same wattage.

It was a gift that I sent so I can't test it. However I am pretty sure it's not going to work on 220v. I am fairly certain as most all small kitchen appliances in US it uses 110v.
