Is it safe and could I make a 120 outlet from a 220v 2 wire hot, shield grounded range outlet?

No, you can't do any of that. A 60 amp breaker would allow the microwave to burn first before the breaker tripped. This is an easy job for an electrician to do, get it done to code specs. It is worth having it done right for a couple of hundred bucks that burning the hose down or turning all the earth points into a voltage sink.

I am about to buy a petter paz1 gen set. But I found that under load it belt black smoke the generator is a 3.5 kva the jug I put on draws 2.4 watts it seems to strugel with just a jug

understand that the advertised capacity is not the real capacity of a gen set The 3.5 kv is max for a short time and that is in reality full load of around 2.8 kv full time rated load Black smoke is over fueling and as you cannot mention if petrol or diesel then the problems can be very different for petrol it is choke ,blocked air filter if diesel it is bad injector, pump out of calibration or incorrect injection timing

How do you convert power requirements from a 220 volt system to a 12volt system?

Eighty watts is constant regardless of what voltage you pick. So get a eighty watt twelve volt motor. Satisfy the wireing requirements for whichever motor satisfies your heart.
HP = torque x rpm / 5252. = 746 watts
You do your own juggling with your known values. All you give is 80 W.

I have a Cobra 1500W power inverter. The alarm is going off when the inverter is shut off. I drive a truck and have unplugged all appliances from the inverter and the alarm is still going off. What

I can only give some general thoughts on this, I have patched up a few inverters. Their core parts rely on a component called capacitors these over time degrade with heat which reduces their manufactured value this will mean they fail to fully do their job. The usual result is not providing a smooth supply rail allowing voltage spikes which trip over and under voltage sensing firing off the alarm, more so when not loaded with appliances as spikes can become large. Your appliances would be snubbing out these through their loading but this can be trouble because they are absorbing this extra energy which may damage them eventually. This situation will possibly get worse with the inverter failing, it will need a service engineer to work on it or to purchase a new one if there is no local regional repair place. Look up faulty capacitors in power supplies on the web for an insight. Hope this helps........

I have samsung fridgert29faracww/sa s/n51864dbd500628z need watts used on start up and running soas i can get the correct invertor to battery in my caravan?

Watts are a simple calculation of Volts x Amps. Check the power supply or the information plate on the fridge. Buy an inverter that is slightly larger than the number you get.
