Default 220 volt to 110 volt

Should be fine, note on setups like this with long wire runs from the box,
the motor startup surge can introduce significant spikes which might damage
poorly designed electronics. Lights fine.

I have a 220 volt line that powers my pool pump. I want to run 110
volt lights near the pool pump and would like to convert 220 to 110.
Is this as simple as taking the 220 wires, and connecting only one hot
wire side with the common wire and ground wire to a standard 110 volt
outlet?
