You may have lots of wire (and some wire connections which are corroded,
thus with lots of resistance) between your main distribuition point and your
wall socket. What about you run a direct wire (of correct size) from the
distribuition point to the Vax? :o)

And my VAX-11/750 runs on 220/240 VAC 50 Hz.
Although at the moment, the mains fuse in the house blows when
I turn the key :-( In my previous home the machine ran well on
a 16 Amps group. I have no clue yet as to why it blows the fuse
of the 16 Amps group after the move to this house.

Just to provide another data point, my 11/750 is the 110VAC variety.

I'm sure they must have made a 220VAC model, but I've
only ever seen
the 110VAC type (sample size > 2)
