Request a Diagram or Explanation to wire 220v-50/60hz UK 3-wire device

Click For Summary
The discussion centers on wiring a SIEMENS iQ700 glass downdraft extractor for use in the US, as it is designed for European voltage and frequency. The extractor operates at 220-240 V and 50/60 Hz, with a connection rating of 300 W and requires a 10 A fuse. The user seeks guidance on how to wire the 3-wire appliance to a US 220V service, suggesting the possibility of replacing the European plug with a US NEMA plug. They request a wiring diagram to assist in communicating the installation needs to a local electrician. The thread is temporarily locked pending the submission of the user's electrical work certifications.

TL;DR
I am buying an appliance that is rated 220v-50/60hz, 10 amps, with a UK type GB plug (3-wire). I'd like to know how to properly wire that 220v 3-wire cord to a US plug (assume I snip it off)?
Planning a kitchen renovation.

We've found a SIEMENS iQ700 glass downdraft extractor [model LD98WMM60B] that we'd love to use. It, of course, is only available in EUROPE.

EAN code : 4242003907122
Connection rating : 300 W
Fuse protection : 10 A
Voltage : 220-240 V
Frequency : 50; 60 Hz
Plug type : GB plug

Question: We've confirmed with SIEMENS it will work fine in US 60 hz service. How do I wire the 3-wire appliance to US 220v 3 or 4 wire service? I Assume I can snip off the plug and install a US NEMA plug.
Diagram appreciated to help me understand your explanation and properly communicate it to local electrician.

Thanks.

Thread 'RF magnetic field generation'

Hello! I want to generate an RF magnetic field at variable frequencies (from 1 to 20 MHz) using this amplifier: https://www.minicircuits.com/WebStore/dashboard.html?model=LZY-22%2B, by passing current through a loop of current (assume the inductive resistance is negligible). How should I proceed in practice? Can i directly connect the loop to the RF amplifier? Should I add a 50 Ohm in series? Thank you!
