The terms 220 volt and 240 volt are used interchangeably. The voltages coming in from the power company can vary between these numbers, and possibly higher or lower. So yes, it's fine.

The voltages which you quote are 'nominal' and within the allowable tolerance of a standard European nominal voltage of 230 V.
Use a step up 240 to 600 volt transformer.
In the US the voltage is about 220 volts. This voltage is based upon the average voltage of the AC sine wave. It can peak as high as 240 volts or as low as 210 volts. So these different voltages are actually referring to an average 220 volt system.
Yes, the 265 volts is just the maximum the appliance can handle. You can use it on a 240 volt circuit.
No. 240 Volts was the nominal standard in Australia with a tolerance of +/- 10%, So the voltage could be anywhere between 216 Volts and 264 Volts. The change to 230 volts is part of international harmonisation between countries that use 220 volt standards and 240 volt Standards. The new tolerance levels are +10% and - 6%.
yes 240volts is 240 volts
France uses 220-240 volts for their electrical system.

You need a step-up transformer, to go from 110 to 220-240 volts. Then a 110 volt supply can operate 240 volt equipment.
Yes, 120 and 240 volts can be run in the same conduit.

yes 240volts is 240 volts
if you want to take your desktop to Australia , just make sure it has a switch that will enable it to work on 220 volts. Australia does not have 110 volts. all homes etc have 220/240 volt electricity
Yes 220 & 240 are considered the same.
240 volts maximum.
The U.S. chose 110-120 volts because it is safer than 220-240 volts. Far less chance of getting electrocuted on the lower voltage.
