Purchase an air condition that uses 115 volts , old outlet is 250 volts. My husband change the 250v with a 115 volt outlet, but the air condition keeps shutting down.
Ding ding ding ding! We have a winner!I would hope that your husband knows enough that changing the receptacle alone won't change the voltage. If not, then he has no business doing the job, and should call a qualified electrician.
Good choice, and make sure your husband doesn't try any other electrical work without first educating himself. There are lots of good books for DIY electrical.I'm baaaaack to admit that was the case. Husband did not change the wiring in the breaker box. Will call electrician.
