220V outlets are very rare in residences - no need for them as 220V is only
used for very high power equipment. The exceptions would be central air
conditioners, electric stoves, electric water heaters, but these are
typically hard-wired in a junction box. Run-of-the-mill appliances using up
to about 20 amps are usually run on 110VAC

Does the above mean that radio hams with a 1500 W RF (legal limit) power
Amplifier will need an additional dedicated 220-234 V outlet in their
shack ? Or would such an outlet be available anyway in relatively new
houses ,built after say 199x ?
Just 2 questions .
