Yes. Notice that the pedants “corrected” you, one saying there’s only 250, and the other saying there’s only 240? That suggests they’re young and have only learned from one person. For historical reasons, you’ll hear 220, 240, and sometimes, I guess, 250. If you have regular US service from recent decades, they’re effectively the same. But... 1. Note that 208 is different somehow. (I dunno about that. And 2. If you aren’t experienced, please learn before messing with 220, as while you might survive a 120 shock, 220 can kill you dead, and 3. Use a tester to make *sure* the power is dead. Don’t just trust the circuit breaker. Just get in the habit of always checking. You don’t know what the idiot who was in there before you might have done. There are things you hold up to it that beep and light up. They’re cheap.
