Can this be used for 220 volt outlet? null

If you need 220V protection, you will need to install a 220V surge protection unit. Suggest using an Eaton CHSPT2ULTRA-1 whole house surge protector installed at your power panel. It does require a two pole 50 AMP breaker to install this unit, so your if your power panel is full, or do not have two spaces, you will have to have an electrician install a new panel. We have ten empty spaces left (now) on our panel and had to re-route two circuits to place the 50 AMP breaker close to the main. It takes about 1 hour to install if you have everything you need. It took me two hours because I had to make trips to the hardware store. The unit was installed to protect our new electronic controlled dryer and also protects our cooking range, water heater and water heater timer but also protects the whole house. This protects the whole house but we still use 110~125V surge protectors in case there is any stray or residual surges that might get through. 220V appliance usually have "some" surge protection, but minimal, that's why we installed the Eaton CHSPT2ULTRA-1 whole house surge protector. I do not work for Eaton. I am an engineer and once worked for an electrical contractor drawing plans and applying for permits. Some projects required surge protection and lightening strike protection. Learned a lot from investigating the requirements and codes for those projects. I do not know of may any aftermarket stand alone 220V surge protectors.

No it cannot be used for a 220 outlet.

This can only be used for 120 volt outlet. The outlet is NOT configured for 220 volts.

No, this can't be used for 220 volt outlet.

specs on document sheet in box says says 125 volts AC, 15 amps I would say NO.

I would assume not designed for 120v
