Any thing other than 415/240 will be a problem. 240/120  or 480/240 does not

in the normal distribution system. Where these exist it is from a specific
customer installation.

It is my understanding that the 250V areas of Western Australia are now the same
as the remainder of Australia and have been for some time.
