THE COST OF THE POWER IS THE SAME FROM THE UTILITIES PERSPECTIVE. IF YOU ARE REFFERING TO EQUIPMENT, THE 240 EQUIPMENT IS SLIGHTLY LESS COSTLY TO OPERATE, IF YOU LOOK AT THE MOTOR NAME PLATE RATING LABEL OF A MULTI-VOLTAGE MOTOR, YOU WILL FIND THAT THE CURRENT (AMPS) WILL BE ABOUT 1/2 AT 240 VOLTS THE MOTOR AMPS OF THE SAME UNIT AT 120 VOLTS.

No totally different
Because its designed to operate at 230-460, not 120-208.
No, do not waste your time.
no
Yes, but a fact has to be taken into account that when a 230 volt rated bulb is used on a 120 volt system the wattage output is half of what the 230 volt bulb is rated at when it operates on 230 volt. So the dimmer will only be used to control half of the bulbs wattage which could bring the bulb down to a dull glow in full dimming position.
There is no remedy but to plug it into a 230 circut.
In North America you can not obtain 230 volts from just one single pole breaker. The distribution is like this, from a one pole breaker to neutral is 120 volts. From an adjacent breaker to neutral is 120 volts. From the adjacent breaker to adjacent breaker (breakers situated beside each other) the voltage will be 230 volts.If you want to incorporate a 120 to 230 volt transformer into the circuit you can obtain 230 volts. The primary side of the transformer will be connected to the 120 volt circuit and the secondary side of the transformer will output 230 volts. The transformer must be sized to the load amperage or the load wattage of the connected 230 volt load.
With electrical work it is always smart to use only approved items with different grades of electricity. The answer is NO only use line filters graded for 120 volt.
no
No.
Yes, we have a 230-volt plug adapter available for purchase.
Yes, a 230 volt motor is generally more efficient and cheaper to run compared to a 115 volt motor. Higher voltage motors are more energy efficient because they draw less current, resulting in lower energy costs over time.
