Many people online say you can use American stepdown transformers with Japanese equipment but this is not correct. Most Japanese equipment runs at 100v and by using on a 110v stepdown over time it will over volt and ultimately damage Japanese appliances. Here's why: The normal voltage in Australia is 240v (+or -) 6% as supplied by the utilties. So the maximum voltage legally that can be supplied can be 254.4v Now 254.4v into a 240/110v transformer will give 116.6v or even higher.(if the transformer is not fully loaded) This is 16.6% increase over the norminal voltage of 100v,. This voltage will damage the 100v equipment. THE INPUT VOLTAGE WILL BE TOO HIGH FOR THE JAPANESE EQUIPMENT.
