If your house is wired for 240 volts do you have to have your house rewired for 230 volts?
No. 240 Volts was the nominal standard in Australia with a tolerance of +/- 10%, So the voltage could be anywhere between 216 Volts and 264 Volts. The change to 230 volts is part of international harmonisation between countries that use 220 volt standards and 240 volt Standards. The new tolerance levels are +10% and - 6%.
Can a 240 volt sub panel run 115 volt motor?
In Europe 240 volts is standard, so no a 115 volt motor will not work. In USA 120 volts is standard, so if your sub-panel has 120 volts, (check with voltage meter) then yes. Read carefully, To get 240 volts in a sub-panel in USA the electric company brings two (2) wires, each wire has 120 volts, 120 + 120 = 240. One of those 120 volts will run your motor. Look for the wires from the electric company and check them with your voltage meter. If this is a commercial application you will need to call an electrical contractor, power companies for commercial applications do not follow the above.
Will a 115 volt converter from 240 volts harm a 110 - 120 volt appliance?
The appliaance is designed for 110-120 v so if it is fed at 115 v that is quite OK.
How many volts in a standard household outlet?

How many volts does a house run on?
120 volts and 240 volts. Typically 240 volts is supplied to the house electrical service entrance. It is split into it's 120 volt components via two buss bars. Hooking a circuit up to just one bar yields 120 volts. Hooking into both gives 240 volts.
What is the electrical voltage from the house outlet to the power supply?
The average voltage a house outlet will give actually depends on how far of a distance the house is from a transformer on the pole. If the house is fairly close to the transformer, it will probably give around 120 volts. However, if the house is a bit far from the transformer, it will probably give around 107 volts.

Where are center tapped transformers used?
The transformer that feeds your house is a center tapped transformer. Primary 7200, Secondary 240. The 240 volt secondary is center tapped to give you 120 volts on either side of the tap. Hence house voltage is 120 / 240 volts.
