Best Answer

It might be possible but check the following things first:

On the rear of the player is an information panel that will state the power supply requirements. If it does not include 230V AC as an acceptable power supply, then it's not going to work.

Next, check the mains lead. Does it look like a figure 8? If so, it is not a double insulated lead and therefore is not approved for use in the UK. UK mains wiring demands a second insulator because of the higher voltage used for mains power and therefore the higher risk of making contact with it.

If you can confirm that both of these points are in order, there should be no reason why the player won't work in the UK.

Can you wire usa 4 wire 240 volt to UK 3 wire 240volt American boat in UK waters?

A four wire plug suggests to me that it is for split voltages. 120/240, hot - neutral - hot - ground will be the four blade connections for shore power in the US. With UK shore power three wire there will be no neutral as you know it. 120 volt equipment will not work. If there is a special berth for 120/240 shore power that is what you will need to tie up to.

What protection is offered by the cord grip in a plug?

The cord grip holds the power cord of the appliance firmly to the plug body. If this is loose or absent then the cord is reliant on the electrical terminals to hold it in place. The copper wire terminals are weak and can easily break. In the UK the 'Earth' wire, which protects the user from electric shock, is the last wire to fail if the power cord is accidentally tripped over.
