It should work fine, you'll just get a less power dissipated (and therefore heat) than you're expecting.

Can 230V appliance plug into a 230v outlet?
Yes, it can be and there is no problem at all Because most of the electrical appliances are made to work on 220v - 240v so it can also be plugged into a 240v outlet.
Is it safe to hook 220 water heater up to 110?
It will not work. It will work, but you will only receive 25% of the rated output of the tank. A 3000 watt heater will only product 750 watts at 110 volts.
Will a 240 volt appliance work with 200 volt supply?
Yes in most cases. If you live in the US and your appliance was made to work in the US and you have Two Hot conductors, red and black and your appliance says its rated for 220 V your ready to roll. If you live in the US and your appliance was made to work elsewhere in the world with the exception for Canada then its very doubtful. The US uses Split-Phase 240V so you can get 120V Circuits also and most of the rest of the world uses 240V Single Phase right to their regular receptacles. 220V is an archaic term and is meant to be used in the 220V-250V range
Can you use 120V lamps in Europe by just putting in a 240V bulb and a European adapter on the plug?
If all the components are rated to 220V, yes. Keep in mind that if the appliance was designed for 110V it may arc if 220 is run through it. If you don't know the device can handle 220V, don't run it at 220V. Chances are it was manufactured cleaply and cannot handle the extra voltage.
250 volt appliance work in 220 volt world zone?
normally, appliance are built in 110v or 220v, applied in 100-140v and 200-240v. if your 250v appliance is common home appliance equipment, then 220volt is ok, i think. otherwise, you should ask the vendor for special power supply.
Would saudi 220v 60hz appliance work on malaysia 240v 50hz?
yes.
Will 220v 60hz work on 240v 60hz whitout any problem?
Most appliciances that are built for use with 220V would normally be fine with 240V. In most cases, they are also labeled 220-240V. Depending on how critical the application is, you should probably check with the manufacturer.
Can 230V appliance plug into a 230v outlet?

Can the Mac book Pro operate on English 220V electricity?
There will be no problems as the Mac laptops are designed to work internationally with a line voltage ranging from 100V to 240V.
Will operating a Mac book Pro on English 220V electricity injure the compute in any wayr?
There will be no problems as the Mac laptops are designed to work internationally with a line voltage ranging from 100V to 240V.
If you have a 220V tanning bed will it work with a 240V outlet?
Yes, it will work just fine. In the United States the voltage coming into homes and businesses is 240 volts but the term 220 volts is commonly used but they essentially mean the same thing.
How do you wire a 110v supply for 220v heaters?
A 220v heater has two 110v lines coming into it--either two 110v lines with a neutral, like a range, or two 110v lines with no neutral, like a water heater. Unless there's a fan in the system, they only use two wires. It's cheaper that way. If you have a DEDICATED circuit for each 220v heater--one where there's only one thing on the breaker--and you have at least 10/2 wire (unless the amps call for 8/2 or 6/2 wiring, which happens), you can install a two-pole breaker to feed 220v to the heater. If you're just trying to plug the heater into an outlet and get it to work, you've got a problem in that you can't pull 220v out of a 110v outlet no matter how hard you try. Sorry.
Will my iMAC work on a 220 current?
Do you mean a 220V as in a power in Europe? Then,Check your adaptor. It will tell you the input voltage. If it sates that the range of the input voltage in 100V-240V then YES you can plug in your adapter into a 220V outlet.Please note that some people advise that you plug in the adapter into the power before plugging it into the computer.
How you determine correct size varistor for protect system which work with 220v AC?
You use varistor wich has the max voltage for that aplication example:vacuumcleanermax allowed voltage is 240v ac so you chose aprox. 250 V varistor.
Will a 220v 50hz cordless phone work in 220v 60hz?
More than likely yes it will work just fine.
If you have a 240V dryer and installed 30A breakers on both sides of the line reads 120 and 120 how do you get 240 and you have a receptacle that reads 30A 125250 and still does not work?
you do NOT put two 110v breakers in. you put 1 two pole breaker in. the panel is designed to give you 220v off one side OR the other side if you use a 2 pole breaker on one side or the other side. If you look at both 120V lines on an oscilloscope you will notice that they are both 120V to the neutral, but they are 180 degrees out of phase. This means that when one hot is at +120V the other is at -120V. So between the two you have 240V. If you put your meter across both hots you should see 240V. If you do not see 240V across both hots you (or an unlicenced electrician) has wired the outlet without using a proper 220V breaker. You do not see 240V because the hots are in phase, to the voltage differential is 0V, not 240V. 220V breakers cannot do this, unless forcebly installed in the wrong type panel. More than likely someone tried to wire it with 110V breakers.
Can i use a 220v 50 Hz welder on a 240V 60 Hz?
Yes, especially if that heater does not have any electronic component inside since it will be damaged if operated at a frequency other then it's rated frequency. But, most electronic devices have been made such that they can work on either 50/60Hz. It's still advicable though to check on the heater's body,at it's supply cable's entrance, for it's frequency.
