We have 400V/16A, three phases, in kitchens for the proper stuff. That’s 19kW, if I remember correctly. Your strong power is like our standard power (240V/16A).
Here in the UK you can have 240V x 32A with three phases. That’s how you get domestic 22kW chargers for EVs, lol. Regular single phase kitchen wiring is 240V x 32A giving us 7kW hobs.
Making better kettles is easier when your entire electric grid is optimised for it.
Seriously, 220 volts will just always get you a faster boil than 120. It’s physics.
We have 240 in kitchens but don’t use it for counter top stuff

And it’s 2 phase

With our standard 240/16A you’d get 11’000 W, that water will boil itself just thinking about that much power
Also, it uses much less copper, and there are fewer resistance losses
Most kettles in the UK are 3,000W.
