Is it possible to use a regular outlet with a 240V circuit? so I don't have to get the adapter? Or the 240V circuits have to use the NEMA 14-50?
YOU HAVE TO USE NEMA 14-50 outlets with 208/240V 50 amps rated circuits! 120V outlets are not designed to handle the voltage that is twice as high and they definitely can't handle 50 amps of the NEMA 14-50 spec. Never mix level 1 and level 2 outlets as you asking for a thermal event, aka fire!
