    Its closer to 240 volts. 120 is more convient/available.

    No, 115v or 120v, you need to buy an electricity converter, will damage machine

    Not sure what the need would be, seeing as how all US outlets are ~115V. Unless your hooking up to a Dryer outlet.

    In any case, setting the switch wrong will blow your power supply

    If the power Supply has a switch and is 240 volt selectable, it will work on 240 volts.
    If this is in the US and for Production, 120 Volts is everywhere. What is this power supply for, Watts?
