This might seem like a stupid question:
If I have a variac rated at 120V, 20A, can I run it at 240A, 10A, the
power being the same? Any answer appreciated.

Robert,
Definitely not. You could run a variac rated at 240 volts on 120 volts
however. You could gang two of the 120 volt variety together and use them
on 240 V, I have done that.
