So the in-wall would be good, but the standard socket (NEMA 5-15) definitely isn't rated for 240v and would need upgrading.

- quickthrowman 3y agoCorrect, a residential NEMA 5-15 receptacle is only rated for 125v. There are some dual amp/dual voltage (15a/20a, 125v/250v) receptacles out there, but you almost certainly won’t see them in a house. NEMA 6-20 is rated for 20a at 250v.
