I wonder if anyone can help me to find the AC line (mains) voltage and
frequency ranges that equipment is required to operate over in Japan.

I am familiar with:

1)  87 - 132VAC   47 - 63Hz for USA

2) 175 - 264VAC   47 - 63Hz for Europe

The general consensus is that the AC line in Japan is subject to much more
fluctuation than we are used to in the UK. I believe it is even worse than
the US!

What are the *regulatory standards* ?

I'd appreciate any help, thanks.
