AFAIK many countries in Europe used 220V or 240V (eg, in Hungary we still
name it as "220" even if it's not that anymore and we know that).  So
(again: AFAIK) 230V was introduced as it was some kind of "common ground"
between these two values.  I am not sure if 230V was used before, or really
it is just a "meeting point" between the used 220 and 240.
