    Porter Cable 7424xp, work to 220v.

    Dear,

    I recently starting in the world of detailing. And I'm very excited and I chose to buy a Porter Cable 7424xp to begin, but in my country, the current output is 220, what type of Transformer (Brand, how many watts) recommend using the PC 7424xp to use it to its maximum power and avoid problems of damaging my polisher. And in the future for my business and would do to use more than 2, 3 or 4 at a time.

    Thank you.

    PD. Sorry if my English is not fluent, is not my native language.

    Greetings

    cya

    Re: Porter Cable 7424xp, work to 220v.

    PC 7424XP Electrical Specifications (USA):
    120V; 4.5A; 540W

    W = V X A..............W = V X A
    W = 120 X 4.5........W = 220 X 4.5
    W = 540................W = 990

    For peak performance:
    It's possible that you'll need a "step-down convertor"
    capable of handling around 2-3 times the US wattage rating of 540W.

    IMHO:
    It's best to go to one of your local electrical supply house:
    They should be able to provide you with the exact type of voltage convertor that's needed for your specific location; and, one that will also be in compliance with your local electrical codes.
