230 v appliances are made to work over a range of voltages and this includes 240 v. Usually the supply voltage can vary + or - 6% and the equipment must be designed for that.
In the UK the nominal voltage is 230 v with a tolerance of -6% +10% because many or most of the outlets work at 240 v in practice.
My electrician says no, has to be some rewiring.
A 230-volt appliance is designed to operate using electricity supplied at a voltage of 230 volts. It is important to ensure that the outlet supplying power to the appliance matches this voltage to avoid damage to the appliance or possible safety hazards.
No a 230 volt appliance should not be pluuged into a 110 volt socket (And vice versa) you need to buy a converter that can be plugged into the 110 volt outlet then the appliance can be plugged into the converter.
Yes, you may need to change your circuit breaker to one that can handle the higher voltage required for a 230 volt window AC unit. It's important to have a circuit breaker that is compatible with the voltage and amperage requirements of the appliance to ensure proper function and safety.
Yes, a 230-volt appliance should work fine on a 220-volt outlet in South Africa. The small difference in voltage is usually within the tolerance range of most appliances. However, it's always a good idea to check the appliance specifications to ensure compatibility and avoid any potential damage.
Yes
Yes, we have a 230-volt plug adapter available for purchase.

To determine if your appliance is compatible with a 230-volt outlet, check the appliance's label or manual for its voltage requirements. If the appliance is rated for 230 volts, it is compatible. You can also consult an electrician for assistance.
No, do not waste your time.
A 208/230 volt single phase appliance requires a dedicated electrical circuit with a voltage of 208 to 230 volts and a single phase power supply. The appliance should be connected to a properly rated outlet or wiring to ensure safe and efficient operation.
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

There is no remedy but to plug it into a 230 circut.
