Hi Group.
I live in England. If I bought a Sony Plasma television in America, will it
work in England ?

Andy

Doubtful...

Wrong frame rate. Line voltage and frequency are also
likely to be incompatible.

Some Televisions are capable of displaying both PAL and NTSC, but they
are few and far between. My suggestion is to check with the
manufacturer. Maybe you can get a replacement or something directly from
them.

I was doubtful about it myself.
I just thought I'd get some other opinions !

Everyone seems to say no, but considering the new digital TVs (including
plasmas) can take a variety of resolutions (due to HD), I wouldn't be
surprised if it'd work.

If the plasma has no tuner and no connection thereof, yes, you might be
right.

In that case, it is no longer a TV. It is a monitor.

The tv may work from a resolution standpoint, but the it almost assuredly
will not work due to power differences. Most TV's sold in NA are not
compatible with European power standards...
