Does the use of the equipment is sufficient?
Is the use of the equipment is sufficient?
Does the usage of the equipment is sufficient?

Would be appreciate if you educate me the usage of "Is" and "Does" in the above sentences are correct?

You should not use is and does in the same sentence.

Is the use of equipment sufficient?

IMHO, if you use does, then the question must be:
Does the use of the equipment suffice?

but when you use is, then the question is:
Is the use of the equipment sufficient?
