When the manufacturer specifies a specific voltage to operate their equipment, that is the voltage that has to be utilized. If you transform the 110 volts from the panel to 220 volts then you are adhering to the manufactures specifications and the device will work. The thing to watch with clocks is the frequency of the clock motor. Clocks are frequency sensitive and if you operate a 50 Hz clock on 60 Hz the clock will not keep accurate time.
