Colin,

You said Australia, that means that your 240V can go as high as 265V easily=
..
Be careful with these relays. I would check with Panasonic if they can be u=
sed in Australia.
In my past, I had to redesign quite a few circuits to meet Australian specs=
..
Was to the point that devices meant to be sold in Australia had a different=
 Part Number (more expensive).

Just my two ($0.02)cents,
