When you see the numbers 120/240 on a device in North America it tells you one of two things. One that the device can be operated from either voltage source 120 volts or 240 volts. This is usually done by a selector switch used to select the correct voltage. The other description is that the device required a dual voltage supply. In North America this would be a three wire single phase supply voltage.
