As you can tell by the nature of my question, I don't have much of a clue.....if it's an induction or universal motor. All I know is that in Europe they sell the Kitchenaid mixer as 220 v 50/60 Hz. I would think that they would use a different type of motor in Europe than in US. They also sell...
I will be going to Germany and want to use my Kitchenaid Standmixer. It is a 450 Watt 115 Volt 60 Hz motor. I have a 500 Watt Transformer. I reallize that the machine will be 50/60 slower, but will it damage the motor? Can I have an electrician rewire it to run on 230 volts?
