You shouldn't have to, 220 and 240 volts are a nominal figure in the same voltage range. It is brought about by the power company, as they have a responsibility to keep voltages within a certain 10% range. The load will only notice a difference of 1% on the load current. e.g. Wattage load of 2400. Amps = watts/volts. 2400/240V = 10 amps. 2400/220V = 10.9 amps. On a constant resistance as the voltage goes lower, the current goes higher and vice versa as the voltage goes higher, the current goes lower.

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.
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%.
Where do the 240 breakers go in panel?
A two pole, (220-240 volt) circuit breaker can go anywhere in a panel where it will physically fit, connecting to two poles on the buss bar. However, if you don't know this already, you probably shouldn't be fooling around in a live electrical panel. You can get seriously hurt or burned.
How you transfer your tv from 120 volts to 240 volts?
The TV might have a panel on the back where you can adjust the voltage that it works on. If not, you need a step-down transformer to convert 240 v to 120 v for the television, and it must be rated at the amount of power the TV takes, which could be 100-200 watts.
How do you convert 7620 volts to 240 volts?
To convert 7620 volts to 240 volts, you would need to use a transformer. The transformer would step-down the voltage from 7620 volts to 240 volts. The ratio of the turns on the transformer primary and secondary windings determines the voltage transformation.
How many volts is in a home electric panel?
A standard home electric panel in the United States typically operates at 120/240 volts. This means that most household appliances use 120 volts, while larger appliances, such as dryers and ovens, may operate at 240 volts. The panel distributes electricity from the main service line to various circuits throughout the home.
How many volts are there in a 200 amp panel?
I assume you are referring to a residential electric panel. The amount of amps has nothing to do with the voltage. They are independent. A typical residential electric panel will have 120 V. That is the easy answer. Usually there are two hot feeds with 120 V to ground. Between the two hot feeds will be 240 V. The bus bars are arranged in the panel so that when you plug in breakers they alternate between the feeds.
Can a 240 volt sub panel run 115 volt motor?

What is the difference between 120 and 240 volts?
voltage is the PUSH on electrons seriously 120 volts is the difference of 240...Simply said 240 volts is 2 times as strong as 120 volts.
What kind of breaker would you use for a 220 hook up?
In North America a two pole breaker will be used in the distribution panel for a supply of 240 volts for a 240 volt load.
How many volts can b drawn off a 240 volt breaker?
240 volts maximum.
What is the standard voltage conversion ratio from 240 volts to 120 volts?
The standard voltage conversion ratio from 240 volts to 120 volts is 2:1.
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.

Can you convert a 3 phase air compressor to 240 volts?
only way to convert from 3 phase to 240 would be to change the electric motor on the compressor
What is the core voltage of the CPU?
3.3 volts
How many is 200 watts in amps at 240 volts?
To calculate the current in amps from power in watts and voltage, you can use the formula: Amps = Watts / Volts. Therefore, for 200 watts at 240 volts, the calculation would be 200 watts / 240 volts = 0.8333 amps. So, 200 watts is approximately 0.83 amps at 240 volts.
Where do the 240 breakers go in panel?
A two pole, (220-240 volt) circuit breaker can go anywhere in a panel where it will physically fit, connecting to two poles on the buss bar. However, if you don't know this already, you probably shouldn't be fooling around in a live electrical panel. You can get seriously hurt or burned.
