That's right, you heard me. One hundred. Not 120 or 110. Also, yes, Japan still hasn't figured out that 60Hz is better than 50.

The power line frequency probably goes back to the occupation. The US helped to rebuild some parts of Japan, the reason why the 60cy side.
The plug on the set is a German shuko plug.
BTW, I have a neat little transformer to reduce the US 120 volts to 100volt Japanese power. !!RC, it's for 50/60hz.
