depends on what the line is feeding. 220, 225, 230, 240, even 250 are all in the same catagory. power companies have increased their output voltages through the years. i would say 220 is minimum. if your connected load is a motor, they are more voltage sensitive, and should be run on 230 or 240. it makes the motor more effecient
