Installing electric back box is simple(make sure you cut off the power where you do your work).

It is not simple - It LOOKS simple. Get licensed electrician. I was zapped couple of times by 220V and have to warn you that it is much, much worse than 120V. Don't take unnecessary risk. There are certain areas where saving money is not very wise.

Try Parts Connection or The Cable Co but they will probably only send 240v gear to UK and 110 hear in US.
