No, it is not recommended to install a 277 volt receptacle in place of a 240 volt receptacle. The voltage difference could cause damage to equipment or pose a safety hazard. It is important to match the receptacle voltage with the equipment being used.
No, tying into a kitchen run to power a 240V receptacle is not recommended. It's best to install a dedicated circuit for the receptacle and ensure that the wiring and circuit breaker are appropriately sized to handle the load. This will help prevent overloading the circuit and ensure safety.
