220V the same as 240V?
This might be a dumb question, but I'm new at this. I have a welder/generator gas driven it has 120V and 240V plug outlets. I bought a mig welder that requires 220V to run it. If I pluged it into the 240V on my generator is it going to damage the mig welder? Or is 240V the same as 220V? Also the plug outlet is not a normal one it looks like a upside down L on one of the prong holes..what is the plug type called, I need to get one but dont know what the **** to call it. A "240 plug"??
Thanks for the help
In the U.S. ' 220' is nominal for either 208 or 240 Volts.
There is no actual 220 Volt. service offered.
(You only find 208 in urban situations where it is derived from
three phase 120'/208V. services.
Most sub-urban and rural services are single phase 120/240V.)
On you generator I suspect that the receptacle is a NEMA 10-30R.
To be sure, take a 'rubbing of the face of the recptacle to the hardware
shop to find the matching plug.
(The NEMA No. of the receptacle might appear on its face.)
