I don't see any problem at all.. Distributors have to ensure supply is anywhere between 216.2v - 253.0v.. allowing for tolerance errors with whatever you are using to read your voltage... then no problem IMHO. p.s. welcome to the forum.. WHY do you think you have a problem? :C ---------- Post Auto-Merged at 21:20 ---------- Previous post was made at 21:19 ---------- Noz is doing the pushy shovey again Admin? :_|
