Ravinder,

Yes, been there, done that! (Kenmore 1980's Model).

Used a 2kVA xformer w/ US style outlet strip for microwave and other US kitchen
appliances. Only problem - Clock/Timer ran at 5/6 time so it was necessary to
enter 1:12 for every 1 minute of cook time! (Perhaps some up to date models run
clock from a crystal so wouldn't have that problem).
