A 240V stove can technically operate on a 208V supply, but it may not perform optimally. The heating elements may not reach their full temperature, leading to longer cooking times. It's crucial to check the manufacturer's specifications to ensure compatibility and safety, as some appliances may require a specific voltage for proper operation. Additionally, consult a qualified electrician for any electrical modifications.

Can a 240v stove run on 2 legs of a 208v system?
No, a 240V stove requires full 240V to operate correctly. Running it on 208V may cause the stove to malfunction or not work at all. It is important to match the voltage requirements of the stove with the power supply for safe and proper operation.
Stove require 120v or 240v?
240V is much more effecient, and you can put more heaters on a 20 amp circuit than you can a 120V.

You are building a new house and trying to decide between 120v and 240v which is better More practical?
In the US, both 120v and 240v will be needed for your home, as different appliances need different voltages. Your TV needs 120V, while your electric dryer and stove will need a 120V/240V supply. If you have an electric water heater, or central AC unit, they will need a 240V supply.
How many volts work in Finland?
240v is the standard for household use.
Can a kitchen stove be on the small appliance circuit?

Would saudi 220v 60hz appliance work on malaysia 240v 50hz?
yes.
Will a 240v sewing machine work at 230v?
Yes, electronic products need to work over a range of voltages as the mains is not maintained at exactly 240V or 230V. Typically they have a range of at least 10% and normally much more. So it should work down to at least 216V.
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.
What is the performance like of an electric stove rated for 240V that is connected to a 208V supply?
Not good. The heating elements expect 240 volts. Possible, alternate burners elements can be purchased. (Read contact manufacturer.) Otherwise a buck/boost transformer can increase the voltage to 240 volts and the stove will run fine. Essentialy, 208 volts has 86 % of the energy of 240 volts.
