Keep in mind that it is breakered for 240. Splitting the legs after a 240 vac circuit breaker is not code.

Tim, In most cases you can split the hot leads on the 240v outlet into two 120v circuits. There are adapter pigtails for this if you don't want to hardware it. From memory, our local hardware store sells these (in the US).

I need to put a UPS there so I just looked for a 240v UPS with the right plugs but because they are made for a lot larger load they were way bigger (and more expensive) than what I was looking for. SO... anyone have a better way to do this? I have considered taking one leg and bonding the neutral and ground, but.....
