You’re right about the frequency for sure, most things with an AC motor for example wouldn’t handle it.

But a quick search shows people have done this for things like kettles without issue.

I’m curious since you guys still use 240V for washer, dryer, cooker, EV charger, etc. Could you legally install a 240V socket (with a different plug type) and use an appliance from a 240V country?

I get it would probably be overkill for a kettle alone but I’m curious why it’s only common for some things. Is it regulated, like do devices need a special approval to be allowed to run 240V in US?
