Yea, I use 220v & 240v interchangeably. When I did the upgrade, they actually
upgraded the service to my
property to 400A and split (at the meter) a 200A leg to the shop. The house was already
200A.

I just did this for my shop. Pictures are here:

I upgraded the power from 40A 220v to 200A 220v. I also put in a two stage AC rated at
55,000BTU at
high speed and about 2/3 of that on low speed. I spent the extra $'s so that the AC
wouldn't "short cycle"
when I'm not running big loads (which will probably be most of the time).
Probably a US-EU difference, but standard residential distribution in the US tends to be
200A 240V. Some of my neighbors have 400A service to their homes.
