Re: CNC in Italy - Question

AC mains power in Italy is 50 Hz.

Single phase "outlets" will be 230 volts nominal. The modern plug has
three each 4mm round pins in a straight row with the center pin being
ground. Common circuits are likely to be 10 ampere, though the
standard also allows for 16 ampere circuits.

Three phase is typically 400 volts phase to phase. I cannot locate
information regarding plugs for three phase power in Italy.

A quick reference on residential power around the world can be found
