I'd recommend having someone at your factory verify what power is available in the building so that you can order whatever transformers or frequency converters are required before you get there. There's a mix of standards out there, so it's hard to assume. If the 1-phase matches british standards and uses british receptacles, it will most likely be 400V 50Hz for 3-phase.
Thanks for replying, it looks like the move might be delayed for a while as it has broken down! Rumour has it that our computers work fine out there but I will have to call in a local electrician to check it out.
I remember being slightly surprised to see our Singapore branch using all british accessories

Johno, If the single phase voltage is 220VAC, the 3 phase voltage is more than likely something like 380VAC star.
The question I would ask is, what sort of a machine is this? Where voltage could be critical to controls and what-not.
One other thing, it is up to the installing electrician to verify that their systems will agree with the machine in question before it is installed. There are a lot of ex-Aussie and NZ electricians over there in Dubai, that went there for the BIG money.
