380V? Is that a European standard voltage? I don't think I've ever seen that voltage in power distribution in the U.S. | ||

Early Miele washing machines imported to the United States, for the most part could run on either 120V or 220v. My machine has two 1500w legs and one is disconnected for use with 120v power, however a special power cord and a 20amp circut is required. Miele did this up until the W1918, were only some of those models could run on 120v power. The rest like all models of washing machines up until the newly introduced 4000 series required Miele's standard of either 120v/220 power or straight 220v power. Some parts required 120v, others 220v. If all Miele washing machine models after the 1918 could be converted to run on 120v power, that would have solved the "power problem" for Miele and boosted their sales dramatically in the United States. However again, that was not the case. It is important to remember early models of Miele machines were "electronic" with mechanical type controls. Once Miele went over to "Navatronic" computer controls, then it was not easy to switch power supplies. L. | ||
