Default Question: US 220 vs Aussie 220

The furnace in question probably runs over $1000 new. A new
transformer large enough to power it would be less than $200. I sold a
couple used weatherproof 15kVA 480/240 to 240/120 transformers
recently, and was glad to get around $100 each for them.


Were those 60 or 50 Hz ones? I think he'll have a hard time getting
a 50Hz transformer there of sufficent size.
