You'll need to contact an electrician to modify the circuitry of your home.
For some low power devices, you can purchase a transformer that will convert to 240V, but if you're using higher current you'll need to run a 240V circuit back to the breaker panel.
Always seek the assistance of a qualified electrician for these types of modifications.

What will happen if 110 volt microwave plugged into a 220 volt circuit?

If a 110-volt microwave is plugged into a 220-volt circuit, it will likely be damaged due to receiving double the voltage it was designed for. This excess voltage can cause overheating, component failure, or even a fire hazard. It's important to use devices with the appropriate voltage or use a transformer to convert the voltage to the required level. Always check the voltage specifications before plugging in any appliance.


How do you convert a German 220 volt chandelier to USA 110 volt?

If you want mood lighting just connect it as is, the brightness of the bulbs will be half. If you want full brightness change the bulbs to 120 volt with bulbs of the same wattage as the 220 volt bulbs.


How do you convert a 110 volts into 220 volts in a digital alarm clock with a plug in option?

You would need to use a voltage converter or transformer that can take in 110 volts and output 220 volts. Make sure the converter is rated to handle the power requirements of the digital alarm clock. Additionally, check the compatibility of the plug to ensure it fits the socket of the digital alarm clock.


How to configure 110 volts power supply to receive 220 volts?

A transformer is needed to convert 110 v to 220 v or vice versa. This type of transformer is commonly used in Europe for power tools in the building trade which run from a portable 110 v transformer with a centre-tapped earth for safety so that each side is only 55 v to earth. A 3 kVA transformer for this purpose costs about £80.
