No such switch exists on any generator..... 220 isn't higher voltage, it's just two 110 circuits. 110V is all the gen puts out, it just does it on two different fields of the alternator. Actually..... an alternator (the part of the generator that makes power) puts out 3 phase and rectifies it to 1 ph. (Even ones on your car.)
