There's no set answer to that, it's always a tradeoff between how well insulated the tool is, and what voltage it uses.

Where a 110v mains is not available on sidewhat device is commonlyused to provide the required reduced low voltage?
In Europe, where the voltage is 230 v (nominally), hand tools used on building sites commonly use a 110 v centre-tap supply for safety, with the centre-tap earthed so the maximum voltage to earth is 55 v. Portable transformers with two 16-amp output sockets are often used and they can be found for about £30.

How is voltage reduced when using power tools on site?
If you are working from a generator and many tools are used at the same time, voltage will drop.
Why are transformer used with power tools?
Transformers are used with tools that operate on less than 'mains' voltage.
Why do electrical power tools have only two wires?
The better quality tools all have 3 wires. You are looking at cheaper tools.
What is the maximum safe voltage for mains operated portable electrical tool on site?
safest is oblivously good quality cordless tools, but failing that 110 volt hand tools is the voltage permitted on Irish building sites.......
Why is the significance of transformer in daily life?
transformers are engaged in a variety of mechanisms to decrease the incoming voltage or raising the voltage of electrical tools.
What is exitation voltage?
The maximum amount of time for a script to execute was exceeded. You can change this limit by specifying a new value for the property Server.ScriptTimeout or by changing the value in the IIS administration tools.

What is generac portable generator used for?
Generac portable generators are often used for powering things such as tools and lights while working. Certain sports instructors or officials occasionally use these portable generators as aid in the electronic scoreboards or timers, etc. Overall, portable generators are simply generators that can be moved place to place to provide electrical power.
Are double Insulated portable tools earthed?
No.

What tools do I need for electrical repair work?
Pliers of various types are the most common tools used for actually handling the wires. However you also need meters to tell you if the lines are live and what voltage you're getting.
What are electronic tools such as cell phone portable media player and notebook?
Smart tools
Why is the risk of fire and electrocution greater in portable tools than stationary tools?
ecause stationary tools have safer circuitry.
