![]() The only real solution here is to install a 240v receptacle for the tanning bed. Note even assuming you can even get to a 120v feed the doubling of amperage may exceed a household 20a 120v circuit. There is a label on the ballast which gives the information and wiring diagram. The ballasts on the tanning bed may have a 120v tap or even be self ranging. Further the green is ground and is never used as a conductor and it is unsafe to use it to carry current except to clear a fault. What you are trying to do is not electrically possible. Your 120v comes from that center tap (neutral) and one of the 240v legs of that transformer. ![]() ![]() The house is actually supplied with 240v plus a center tap from the power company transformer. Is the red/white wires the common or the "hot" wires.įirst off residential voltages are 120v and 240v. My thinking is that the red/white are in the wrong postion on the male connects. Is it possible that i have wired the new connectors wrong? What i did was share the black and green wires between the to male connectors. I am an avionics man and work on helocopters.ġ) seperated 220 input from tanning bed into two seperate 110 in to two male plugs.Ī) once pluged into wall outlets gfi triped and would not power tanning bed after reset (i.e gfi would continully trip)Ĭ) green to green side contact (bottom of 3 prong male connector) ![]() I am an have some general g-2 of electronics by way of my current job. A friend of mine has a tanning bed that he would like to convert from a 220 input to two seperate 110s. ![]()
