Best Answer

Yes, but you will get a higher wattage output than 800 watts, this means that the lamp will glow brighter. This connection will also shorten the life of the lamp because of the higher voltage. When you state "plug", it suggests that the connection will not be made if the plug can not fit into the receptacle.
