208V is a line to line voltage of a 208/120Y system. 220V is a line to ground voltage of a 380/220Y system. 240V is the line to ground of a 415/240Y system. The important dfference, othere than maybe having too high or low a voltage, is that one of the input leads is either ground referenced or both are hot. Electric and gas-powered dryers use the same amount of electricity to do their jobs. 220 volts of electricity is needed to get your clothes dry. Is there a difference between 220V and 230V? 220/230/240 are the same thing, really US single phase line-to-line mains voltage is interchangeably referred to as 220V, 230V, and 240V. The trick to using a North American GFCI in a 230V single-phase application is they must be 2-pole GFCI circuit breakers. You must get a North American service panel/load center/consumer unit intended for 120/240V split-phase, and wire neutral as a hot: so Euro-hot+neutral go to "hot" L1 and L2. Using 220 might lower the electric bills due to 110v wires being under sized for near the limit use. Most 110 circuits "expect" and are wired for, at most, hair dryers, TVs, coffee makers etc. When you plug in your new fat table saw rated at 110v, 15amp normal running. Higher operating temperature will result in a shorter life expectancy. Even though the system voltage of 3 phase 208 is within the -10% rating of the three phase 230 v motor, the 208 is allowed to vary to -10% or 187 volts -- and the motor will not work at that level. If you can't get a 208 rated motor (or one which has multiple voltage ratings In Canada the standard voltage is 120 V and the frequency is 60 Hz. You can use your electric appliances in Canada, if the standard voltage in your country is in between 110 – 127 V (as is in the US, Canada and most South American countries).You can also consider a combined power plug adapter/voltage converter.
208V is part (two hot wires) of a three phase grounded wye system. 110V or 220V operating voltage are typically meant for single phase system with a grounded neutral. I would do the following: 1.In the USA, do not use 208V single phase. Instead use 110V switch on your P/S and use 120V from L-N of a 208V/120V system. 2. Do not use 220V switch in
I'm not an electrical engineer, but if you bring a 110V only appliance and plug it in with a plug adapter to a European socket (220V), your 110V appliance will "fry" no matter how high/low the

If it has 220V, there will be three wires from the power line to your electrical panel, two hot and one neutral. Measuring across the two hot leads, should give you 220V. Which countries use 220V? Typically, either 120-volt AC or 240-volt AC is used. Most countries use 50Hz (50 Hertz or 50 cycles per second) as their AC frequency.

The standard electric outlet in the United States is 120V and will be able to directly power fans that have 120V within its range such as 110V, 115V, and 120V AC fans. For example, a fan might state 220V on its label but it will be able to run on a 230V power source. Europe uses 230V as its standard for electricity.
Oct 23, 2012. #4. erickench said: No. It would have to be a 240 Volt system. The reason why it's rated at 220 volts is because of the voltage drop in the branch circuit conductors. I will not say that is necessarily wrong, but I find it more common to see equipment (especially motor driven) rated for 230 volts with that being the likely reason
