  1. Regular plug is 110 volt You need a 240 volt to carry 215 volt.

    It ill not work on 110 volt.

    Install a 220 volt wall receptacle to match the plug that's on the A/C unit. If you look on the unit it will probably tell you that it needs 30 AMP breaker in the breaker box.


  2. Huh? a 215 air conditioner only can run on 240 volt hence the special plug to prevent something else being plugged in by accident

  3. No can do!!!!!!!!! The motor and compressor will not run properly and you will probably blow every fuse in the box...

  4. Very few electric motors are designed to run on 220 or 110.

    If yours is one of these you will find a schematic inside the power box on the unit that will show you how to wire it for 110. If it is not designed for either voltage you will have to install a 220 receptacle near the unit with adequate wire and breaker to use the unit.

    Good Luck!
