220 to 240 voltage range
Yes, 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.

How many volts does an air conditioner operate on?
Most residential air conditioners in the US operate on 120 volts, while larger units may require 240 volts. Commercial air conditioners may operate on higher voltages depending on their size and capacity. It is important to check the specifications of the specific air conditioner model to determine the voltage requirement.
Can an air conditioner unit running on 250 volts be run directly by 120 volts?
No, the unit has to operate on the voltage specified. The internal controls are all designed to operate on a 240 volt input. The motor in the air conditioner will not operate at the lower voltage and without this compressor motor operating the unit will not get cold.
Which device runs on 400 volts?
A motor will operate on 400 volts.
What can you run on ten amps?
At 120 volts you can operate any equipment up to 1200 watts. At 240 volts you can operate any equipment up to 2400 watts.
Will a 220 volt ballast operate from a 230 volt source?
Yes, 220 volts is in the same voltage classification as 230 volts.

How different is the horsepower used by an air conditioner unit if it runs on either single phase or three phase ac?
There is no difference in horsepower. The manufacturer builds the air conditioner. Engineers calculate and tell the manufacturer how much power is going to be required to make it operate. Smaller units will probably use lower voltage with lower horsepower to operate efficiently. The bigger the unit will take higher horsepower to operate. There comes a point when single phase, low voltage use will not work due to the unavailability of high horsepower, low voltage motors. At this point three phase systems are used with higher voltages to operate the motors. Examples of a 10 HP motor at different voltages. Single phase - 115 volts 100 amps, 230 volts 50 amps. Three phase same HP - 200 volts 32.2, 230 volts 28, 460 volts 14 and 575 volts 11 amps. As you can see if the air conditioner needs a 10 HP motor at single phase 115 volts, a feeder supply of 100 amps would be needed. This compared to the same air conditioner using a three phase 575 volt system which draws 11 amps.
What is the voltage on a residential air conditioner?
Residential air conditioners typically operate on either 120 volts or 240 volts, depending on the unit's size and design. Smaller units, like window air conditioners, usually run on 120 volts, while larger central air conditioning systems often require 240 volts for efficient operation. It's important to check the manufacturer's specifications for the exact voltage requirements of a specific unit.
