The A350 has gone to variable frequency 230VAC output from the engine driven generators (2x 100KVA gens per engine), and most of the main users are 230V.

230 -> 115VAC is supplied by Auto Transformer Units (4 normal and 2 emergency bus), which can also supply the 230V network when external power is connected (either step down or step up transformers).
