How can I use my USA X-box one console -model 1540 -in Europe (The Netherlands)?

As the others in the comments have said, it should just be a simple swap of the power brick and you'd be good to go! I did the same thing when I moved from the UK to the US and just swapped the power cable for the original Xbox One. If I recall I think
Microsoft support were able to direct me to an official replacement block at the time.

You need a power brick for the Netherlands or use a power transformer to plug the console into it.

Hi Stuart thanks for speedy reply!

I have found a brick on a Dutch website especially for the X-box One with the following specifications:

Specificaties:

• Kleur Zwart
• Plug Type: EU / VS / UK
• Input: AC 100 ~ 240V, 47 ~ 63 HZ
• Output: 135W DC 12V / 10.83A, 5VSB 1A

The above "EU" brick solves the AC voltage and differing plug problem, but as output it has DC 12V /
10.83A , whilst my current US brick has DC 12V / 16.5 A (5Vsb-10A is the same) for output.

I have no clue what this means, but I do know that 'normal' US appliances (coffeemaker etc) 'blow up' when plugged in without a special transformator, because of differing watt/Amp specifications.

Does this EU brick solve this -separate- issue too, or is the X-box One different from normal household appliances in the sense that this problem doesn't exist (like laptops/computers do not have this problem either) ?

Also, I can't seem to find a brick made by Microsoft/X-box that is sold seperately from the console; is buying from a third party the only option?

Not really, as sales have a impact on Microsoft and the X Box brand, so how the console sells not just in your country but the world will have a very big impact. Obviously One sales in the uk and europe will be a lot lower then then the usa.
