I know it's a bit OT here, but I could have found no better place to ask my question.
I have AN Conqueror, set up for 220V mains. The connections at the top of the mains transformer look like this:
/--------------\
| |
0 100 110 120 I
|
|
\--------------\
|
|
0 100 110 120
The trick is that we have 230V in my country now. So should I reconnect the wires like this:
/------\
| |
0 100 110 120 I
|
|
\--------------\
|
|
0 100 110 120
or maybe like this:
/--------------\
| |
0 100 110 120 I
|
|
\----------------------\
|
|
0 100 110 120
??
Maybe some of you has Conqueror or similar product set up for 230V so you could check what does it look like?

My advise is to check the heater voltage for 6sn7 tube. You should have 6.3V.
The 5V 300B heater has a voltage stabilizer, so the small change in supply voltage change nothing. The same for B+.
You should adjust the power transformer primary voltage settings to get the exactly 6.3V or the closes to it value.

Sorry, the board ate the whitespaces...
It is:
Lower 110 to upper 0
upper 110 to upper I
Should be (I guess)
Lower 110 to upper 0
Upper 120 to upper I
or
Lower 120 to upper 0
Upper 110 to upper I
Sorry for the mistake.

  It should be:
  Lower 120 to upper 0 - that connect the two winding.
  Use lower 0 and upper 120 as the input of 240V.
  This is how it configured in my SHINRI and DAC5.

    Correction:
    It should be:
    Upper 120 connect to lower 0.
    Use upper 0 and lower 120 as the input of 240V.

      Big thanks 2u all!
      In a meantime I asked Peter Q, he suggested lower 110 to upper 0 and upper 120 to L; I did so, at the moment everything seems to be ok :)
