The ratings are distinctly separate, but on the
same label. No switch. Its quite clear the unit operates 120-240 and
50-60.
Yes, well, we got it right in IEC TC84 (now TC100) but TC16 objected to
us making a standard on their 'patch', took it over and (as I heard the
story) decided that '50/60 Hz' was right, as there were no supplies of
intermediate frequency. The illogicality didn't seem to count.
