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.

Can you use 120V lamps in Europe by just putting in a 240V bulb and a European adapter on the plug?

If all the components are rated to 220V, yes. Keep in mind that if the appliance was designed for 110V it may arc if 220 is run through it. If you don't know the device can handle 220V, don't run it at 220V. Chances are it was manufactured cleaply and cannot handle the extra voltage.


How do you change over so you can plug a 120V RV plug into a 240V single-phase twist-lock receptacle?

Is the 220V plug 220V only or 110/220V? (The former will have 3 prongs and the former will have 4) If your case is the latter just use the ground, neutral, and one of the hots. This will give you 120V single phase. If the case is the former you can't get 110V off that plug.


How do you rewire a 220v lamp for 120v?

To rewire a 220V lamp for 120V, you will need to replace the existing 220V bulb with a 120V bulb that is compatible with the lamp's socket. Next, you will need to install a 120V compatible power cord that matches the voltage requirements of the lamp. It's important to refer to the lamp's manual or consult with a professional electrician to ensure the rewiring is done correctly and safely.

Can you plug a 220 volt appliance into a 240 volt outlet?

Yes. As far as in the US 220v and 240v is pretty much the same thing. People call it 220 but realistically you prob have 230-240v. Get a cheap voltage tester and check it out

Will my iMAC work on a 220 current?

Do you mean a 220V as in a power in Europe? Then,Check your adaptor. It will tell you the input voltage. If it sates that the range of the input voltage in 100V-240V then YES you can plug in your adapter into a 220V outlet.Please note that some people advise that you plug in the adapter into the power before plugging it into the computer.
