Japan is just 100V, not 110/115/120, there are some appliances that will use 200V. Similar to how the US has 240V. The weird bit with Japan uses both 50 and 60hz.
People get this wrong all the time. North America is 120V for the usual outlets, but what comes into your house is 240V split phase. You get 240V in places you want 240V, like electric stoves or clothes dryers.
Exception is apartments, especially those with elevators, which use three phase. Then you combine two legs to get 208V and your electric stove is kinda shitty.
Voltage and a pin out would be cooler
Voltage is 220/240/250v, unless it is American or some parts of Central and South American where we use 110/120/130v.
The big pin is the earth(usually middle), left is usually neutral, and right is hot.
Japan is 100V
Pretty sure they’re on 115/120v. Which is also not entirely true because part of the country is apparently wired for 230v or something.
I dunno, there’s a long history there.
