220, 230, 240 ... all the same thing
The number used only tells how old the inquirer is.
Actual values reflect the commercial power transmission secondary envelope.
The present standard, commonly referred to as 120/240 actually can be as high as 125/250!
<><><> As always, if you are in doubt about what to do, the best advice anyone should give you is to call a licensed electrician to advise what work is needed. Before you do any work yourself,
on electrical circuits, equipment or appliances,
