Probably not, but I have yet to see a 150 volt appliance as this is a non-standard voltage. If you are referring to a 115 volt appliance then the answer is yes you can as 110/115/120 volts tend to be used interchangeably in practice and are close enough together to not affect operation of the appliance.

Do not do this.
If the electrical device says 100-240 v is it safe to plug a 110 device into a 220 outlet?
Only if it is rated for 110V-220V. If it is rated for 110V only and you plug it into a 220V outlet, your device will be destroyed.
Can you insert a 160v rated plug a into a 110v outlet?
No, the pin configuration would not allow this to happen.
Can you use a 220v outlet to plug a 110v electronic device into?
You cannot directly plug a 110v device into a 220v outlet. This can cause damage to the device or even create a safety hazard. You would need a voltage converter or transformer to safely convert the 220v outlet to the appropriate voltage for the 110v device.

Can you plug in a 110v spa into a residential outlet?
If it's rated at 110 then you can safely plug it in to a residential outlet. But, because it is generating heat, it will be drawing substantial voltage so you should ensure that the appliance is on its own circuit; otherwise when someone else turns on a light, or plugs in another appliance, the circuit will overload and shut down.

How can you wire a 110V plug outlet from a 240V plug outlet not speaking of a converter but actually changing the plug outlet so that there are no long term effects on the 120V appliance?
Assuming the wiring to the outlet has 2 loads and one neutral, isolate one load from the outlet and use the neutral as the common. be sure to ground from the receptacle to your conduit or ground lead. You should also replace the corresponding breaker with a 120 volt single breaker.
