No, it was between 784 and 805 W (230x3.4 or 230x3.5). The tension is 230 V in Italy. This is called in Italy "eurotensione", google it.
Sorry but this is still incorrect.
You have not taken into account the required RMS (root mean square) calculation for AC - which lowers the average power considerably.
I'm afraid you're mistaken.
230 Volt AC (single phase) is the _*average*_ AC voltage and not the
"peak". So 230 Volt AC means essentially 325 Volt AC peak.
Kind regards,
