Stupid question, but if I have an electrician come out to install a 220 volt outlet/circuit, won't that outlet have a different shape/configuration? I imagine I would need a different kind of cable to connect the power supply to the wall, but google is not providing useful search results (probably because I am searching for the wrong thing).
Any suggestions?
we have iec cables in europe the same as the ones in america. they may well be the same cable with a different connector on it. i don't know what connector they would use in the usa... but in europe, we mostly use 2 or 3 pin rounded connectors, and in the uk something different.
but i honestly don't know what you'd use in america when using 220-240 volt supplies.
europe..
