[Amps] AC wiring

If it's like a TL-922, the same amount of 120V current pass through the fuses regardless of how it's strapped.  It's just that on 240, the 120 phases are split.  What's so hard to understand about that?  From the source, it draws all the current from a single 120 wire, instead of two 120V wires carrying half the current.  Input power is the same -- no brain surgery here.

Greetings to all,

Here is a question for the group. In the SB-220 linear (as well as
many others) why are the circuit breakers (fuses) not changed when switching
from 110 VAC to 220 VAC operation?
