Having recently moved here from Europe, we have a few small kitchen appliances that are 220 volt (standard voltage for almost everything in Europe) which we would like to continue utilizing. Does anyone have any knowledge regarding whether a standard 110 volt wall receptacle can be re-wired for 220 volts? Or does a completely new wall plug have to constructed into the wall.
I know little about this but I think 220 volt is the voltage provided to every home in the USA and it is halved to become 110 volt because of the plug / fusebox wiring configuration.
Can anyone provide an opinion or proper any suggestions on how to resolve our dilemma.
Thanks in advance, BJ
