it's 230 (+-10%) nominal not 220. At my house it's around 235. It's 230v phase/live to neutral and 400V between live wires in 3phase. Nowadays 3-phase (120degree between each) is a commodity.

In my part of USA the typical voltage between the two sides of a breaker box is 240V. It actually moves around a bit below that value, but doesn't seem to ever exceed 240V. I think most consumer devices have the circuitry necessary to survive such variation, but I have seen some (expensive) professional equipment fried in an instant...
