which power supplies are known to work in UK and 216 to 253 Volts rms ?

[WHIZZ718]

I was considering buying a shiny new 12V 1600W power supply to replace an old one with a second hand miner but I'm seeing conflicting figures.

Mains electricity Voltage here at 50Hz was 244 Volts rms typical last time I checked and formally could go up to 253 Volts in this region.
Bitmain advertise their APW3 power supplies for 220 Volts and up to a maximum of 240 Volts.  As in "it might break" if it functions as advertised.

I read elsewhere online that they are good with British mains and rated up to 264 Volts.  I do not make sensible purchasing decisions on a single source of internet gossip.  What works in the UK ?

I just got a useless reply from Bitmain support "Please send us the Order ID and a picture of the SN tag. "

Last i heard (from numerous electricians) voltage in the UK is 230v.

there is almost no way you have 253v unless you live right next to the power station/transformer and under a very poorly designed infrastructure, but i doubt that is very likely in the UK , also i am willing to bet the house that whatever meter you used sucks, measuring the voltage with a bad quality meter  out of the peak periods will usually give you funny results, even if you had 3 phases then what you should technically get between every phase and neutral is 240v, so i would suggest you use a proper meter, measure at peak hours.

most electronics are rated at 220-240 volts.

also and most importantly,bitmain PSU is no different from any other regular electronic device you have at home, be it your PC's psu or your fridge, if your 253 volts has not damaged anything in your house then sure thing it won't damage a PSU.
