Furthremore those are only intermittant ratings.

Regular domestic sockets in the USA are rated at at best 20A and more commonly 15A. claims that unit takes 11.3 amps, double that and add some overhead for the transformer and you would be looking at around 25 amps from your 120V supply. The problem you will run into is if an air conditioner designed for the US market requires 240V then it probablly requires more power than can be supplied by a normal domestic socket. Then chose a transformer or converter which preferable a bit more ampere or VA then that. It should be on a label next to the voltage. Check how many ampere or VA your equipment uses. Alternative are modern electronic converters. This is the outlet that is used to charge electronics such as cell phones and other devices. If you are looking for this outlet, you should be able to find it right behind the passenger seat. In other words if a transformer is converting 120V to 240V then the input current will be more than double the output current. There are 120V to 220/230 voltage converters. Dodge Caravan power inverter and outlet There is a 115 Volt AC/150 W power inverter located in a Dodge caravan. Your biggest challenge is finding an outlet that can run a 240V device. You don’t have to customize a 115V plug to use a 120V outlet or vice versa. You can plug a 120V device into 115V or 120V outlets. Power is proportional to voltage times current (if the power factor was 1 it would be equal to voltage times current). While 115V outlets don’t differ from 120V outlets and plugs. The feed supplying the transformer must cover both the power requirements of the load and the losses in the transformer. NEMA 5-20R Edit: missed that the right blade is horizontal with ground pin at bottom. In that case, you need to do what I initially said up top. However you must understand that transformers can trade off voltage for current but they can't magic power out of thin air. Edit2: Third try, thats a 6-20R plug if the right side is horizontal. How much power can such an outlet put out Just slide the upper slider to 15 and the lower slider. It is in principle possible to run a 240V load off a 120V supply using a transformer. Lets say you have a 15A standard breaker and 115V voltage.
