Ask Sir Tony - an Electronics/Electrical Q & A thread

  • thanks po sir awake, hanap pala ako sa ace ng wire nya, dalhin ko na din para sure sa sukat..


  • Kadalasan ng mga wirings sa buong bahay is A and D ano ba ang
    dapat na wirings sa bahay? sinusundan ko lang kasi yung ginawa nung dating gumawa tapos napansin ko pa iba iba. may iilan lang na C ang gamit pag ka naka lagay wire to ilaw/switch tapos directho na dun sa main line or junction box yung orange.

    ano ba ang mag durable/safe jan sa kanilang lahat?

    pwede ba gamitin yung B sa naka fix na extension wire, fix meaning from orange box ikakabit ko na tas lagyan ko na ng outlet. safe ba yun? galing sa pldt ata yung wire nayan madami kasi kame niyan ewan ko kung san galing tigas nga nito. gagamitin ko sa pc yung saksakan na gagawin ko sa B kasi laging inaabot ng anak ko sa baba yung saksakan kaya i tataas ko sana, hinayang naman ako sa wire B kaya balak ko sana gamitin.




    Pwede ko ba ito gamitin para mapagana itong DC12V na led light using this plug transformer? naka sulat output 12VDC. sira na tong plug transformer nato e sinaksak ng kapatid ko sa 220. pero pag bibili ako ng pang pa ilaw dun sa led light any plug transformer ba na 12VDC ang output ok naman? gagawa sana ko ng ambiance light dito sa bahay


    Maraming salamat po sa sasagot.
  • First off, I don't care about any of the wires in your picture. Why? Because I cannot determine what size they are.

    Here's what I do know:
    For house wiring, AWG #12 (solid or stranded) or 3.5mm ^2 is the minimum for outlets for appliances.

    For lighting fixtures, AWG #14 (again, solid or stranded) or 2.0mm ^2 is the minimum for lighting fixtures.

    My advice: never mess around with mains wiring if you don't know what you're doing.

    pwede ba gamitin yung B sa naka fix na extension wire, fix meaning from orange box ikakabit ko na tas lagyan ko na ng outlet.

    galing sa pldt ata yung wire nayan madami kasi kame niyan ewan ko kung san galing tigas nga nito

    PLDT's wires do not carry 220 volts. This means you should not use it.

    Pwede ko ba ito gamitin para mapagana itong DC12V na led light using this plug transformer?

    You could, but I don't really recommend it, because the output of that transformer is not stable/regulated. You could try a 12v 4-amp adapter used in some LCD monitors and more often in CCTV cameras.
  • good eve. i have this clicking sound sa Power supply the PC. its happening randomly. maybe 5 times a day.

    may ibang computer ako pero this never happened to them.

    wala nman issue ang computer no crashes or any signs of unstable operation.

    btw nka saksak ang computer ko sa outlet where my airconditioning is.

    ano po bang pinagkaiba ng mga nakahubad or yong walang cover na welding machine at yong may cover type?


    aesthetics, safety protection.
    pero mas preferred ng mga metal fabricators ang mga "naka-hubad" na welding machines, customized. mas heavy duty daw kasi mga yun.
  • @statix

    thank u
  • ^ welcome.
  • Hello sirs,

    I have a deskjet printer that has lost its power cable, 30v siya, may nagbebenta ng 32V na cable, kunin ko ba yun? almost 2 months na kasi ako naghahanap, magastos kung bibili pa ako ng bagong printer. TIA sa replies.
  • ^
    No. Get your printer's manual, take note of the exact model of the power adapter it uses, as well as the output voltage AND amperage.

  • Since thread is about electrical stuff. Question lang paano ko ba lessen ang electrical charge sa body ko? kasi madalas hahawak ako ng mga bakal may static nakaka stress.

    also where can i buy a static wrist watch?
  • what is the model of your printer?
    HP deskjet 2060 sir
    No. Get your printer's manual, take note of the exact model of the power adapter it uses, as well as the output voltage AND amperage.
    noted on this, thank yo very much

  • Sir di ba masira speaker pag nagkabaligtad ung connection ng 2 wires. PA speaker po sya ha, input 400 watts, 200 ohms, output 50W
  • mga bossing san po nakakabili ng mga solid capacitors dito sa pinas? thanks!
  • san po kaya ako makakapag paggawa ng psu. parang nag trigger ung safety power nya ee
  • Mga sir pa OT lang. Meron ba kayo masuggest dun sa Questiin ko sa taas. LED driver ng motorcycle headlight. Nasira kasi ung Driver nya. Ty
  • ask ko lang po ano maganadang pang-tangal ng screw sa laptop n lumaki na yung butas na loose na po kc hindi na kumagat ang screw driver.
  • @Remod

    try mo ipatong muna yung screwdiver sa screw tapos patakan mo ng tunaw na lead ng panghinang. magdidikit yun para magalaw mo pakonti konti..
  • ^ thanks boss epektib nga yan buti may nahanap pa akong spare na screw sa mga sirang laptop.
  • Good day sirs! Help naman medyo nalilito kasi ako regurding surge protection. See plan ko buy ng AVR with power-on delay (meiji yung brand ok ba yun?) and di ko masyado magets paano siya makatulong sa surge protection. Pag nag blackout and nagkakuryente mag delay siya ng on di ba? How about pag may power surges pano siya makatulong..should I buy a separate surge protector or ok na yung avr na yun for my pc? Thank you all!
  • ^kung maganda yung AVR, that should be enough, pero dami naglipana na low quality avr with surge protection daw. Medyo mahirap maghanap ng quality surge protector, pero meron naman like Stavol Servo-type AVR. I have this, pero di ko na nagamit kasi di na rin ako masyado nag PC. haha.

    To be sure bili ka nalang ng separate power strip na may surge protector. Redundancy is the key.

    Alao, kapag branded ang PSU, substantial naman ang surge protection nya perp hanggat maari di dapat magamit kasi masisira na rin PSU. Hehe.

  • @vanguardwars

    Thank you sa reply sir! Ang mahal po ata yung original na stavol brand and meron yung made in china but i'm not sure sa quality ng build. I think yung meiji brand is Japan (correct me if I'm wrong) but halos wala ako makitang reviews eh.

  • Magandang araw po mga Ginoo,
    Saan po kaya makakabili ng ganito door switch po siya ng microwave. May power po kasi yung microwave gumagana ang timer at mga pindutan may ilaw din sa loob. Hindi lang po umiikot yung turn table at hindi umiinit.
