Many part series explaining about electricity in hopes of helping you avoid some common mistakes I see in a lot of DIY Green Power projects. Including ones that make it on TV.

I said "those lines" (plural). While the bundle of wires in most houses equates to 240 V. I was referring to each individual line/wire (120 + 120) so those line(s) indeed are 120 v each alternating current) That line (singular) is 240v. I stated it this way because we actually have an additional wire. Our house/office was once used to repair aircraft and the machinery required large powerful "Three Phase" motors. So our service is 3 phase.

  • I am a little confused, you said those lines in your house are 120 ac. I thought all houses have 220 service. At least that is what my friend who watched this with me said. Any help?

  • Hi,

    Yes, it is 220 service (actually 240 volt service). I said "those lines" (plural). While the bundle of wires in most houses equates to 240 V. I was referring to each individual line/wire (120 + 120) so those line(s) indeed are 120 v each alternating current) That line (singular) is 240v. I stated it this way because we actually have an additional wire. Our house/office was once used to repair aircraft and the machinery required large powerful "Three Phase" motors. So our service is 3 phase.

  • Hi there, Is the second part of this video available yet?

    Your videos are great by the way, thanks for all the info.

  • Thank you for the compliment and yes, part two is in the works, I have gotten a bit sidetracked with the other videos as we have had unusually perfect cloud free days. I will try to edit it within the next few weeks. Thank you for watching.

  • Volts are volts, amps is the true output of power.

  • Sort of kind of. (10 amps 12v) is 1/3rd the output power of (3 amps 120v) in terms of usable energy or watts... so if watts are your true output of power, then volts matter.

see all

  • Really enjoyed this video,

    Like the other question previously posted, I'm really looking forward to the next video in the series. Looked all over YouTube and many others but not the next video for this series.

    Please let us know,

    Thanks

  • Hey there! I have an odd question for you. We have an old camping bronco with a roof rack. Can we safely mount a small solar panel and marine battery? The girlfriend would like heat while we are out camping...have to make her happy. Figured we could power a small space heater with the system, and have it charge back up during the day. Perhaps also power some of our axillary lighting at night, instead of running off the trucks primary battery. Thanks for any input and I love you shows!
