    Through video! If you could help me out on my situation, i would appreciate it. I have a predator 3500 generator that has a twist lock outlet(lr30) it only outputs 125v. So there isn't flow restriction i would like to use my welding machine 240v power cord(6-50p male) instead of the 125v power cord.
    How do i go about making/wiring an extension cord thats a has a l5-30p male end and a 6-50 p female end ?
    Do i only need to use two wire instead of the three? Ie
    Ground to Ground
    Black (Hot) to black
    Then leave the neutral open
    Would this be the correct way of doing things?

    not sure if you realized it but you had a few cut places on the wire on the outlet, should have took green wire loosen it too and cut the the old wire and stripped it further down the cable wire, may not cause a problem, but safer to start out with on nicked wire. I saw the cut on white wire when you was starting to connect it, other than my earlier comment and this one a good how to video

    I thought it didn't matter when wiring 220v since x and y both give out 110v.

    • @JOATD
      @JOATD  Год назад +1

      Trust me I felt the same way but through careful research and looking through a lot of diagrams it seems that it matters. If you take a look down at my useful links area I have multiple diagrams to show you how I found out that it matters. It is in my description area.

    Great video. Can you explain why you’d use the ground instead of the neutral?

    • @JOATD
      @JOATD  Год назад

      Because the neutral wire carries current back to the source is like a loop.

    • @paulyshore98
      @paulyshore98 Год назад

      @@JOATD I thought ground was used to take current back in the event of a short and that ground and neutral were electrically the same in the panel?

    • @JOATD
      @JOATD  Год назад

      @paulyshore98 no they are not the same. Neutral is a current-carrying conductor ground is not.

    My 60 gallon air compressor has 3 wire set up and I need to plug it into 4 hole receptacle on my generator! Can I wire the air compressor to 4 prong plug just like your doing and plug it into the generator??

    • @JOATD

      I don't really feel comfortable answering that question. Without knowing what type of receptacle and plug combination you're going to use. This is electricity were talkin about. Lol

    • @JasonSmith-utube
      @JasonSmith-utube 2 месяца назад

      ​@@JOATDhe's basically talking about hooking a 3 wire compressor to a 4 prong plug like the one in your video. Generators uses 4 prong twist lock. Most 60gal air compressors use a regular 3-wire 220 volt plug.

    • @JOATD
      @JOATD  2 месяца назад

      No it depends on how many volts your air compressor takes. That four prong plug on your generator is 240 volts. That air compressor probably is only 120 volts. It will not work it'll probably catch on fire. I would suggest you not do that.
