Hello there
I am a novice at electronics and am wondering if someone here can help me.
I have a Powerstat Variac mode l3PN216C. It is rated for a 240v input. I would like to use it on a standard 110v electrical outlet. It has a 110v cord and plug on it but the outlet is different, the two pins are in the opposite direction. Can I simply shange the outlet for a 110v one and use it or do I need to change something inside? There are 7 Terminals inside and I have ound a link to the diagram here

Maybe I cant use it and need to get a 110v one but I hoped to get some expert advice before giving up on it.
Many thanks in advance for any input.
