Voltage isn't "shipped", really. Generator terminal voltage is typically in the range of 10-30kV; they are connected to the bulk electric system by step up Transformers that convert this 10-30kV into voltage in excess of 100kV for power transmission. Near your home, this voltage is again stepped down to sub transmission voltage levels, then distribution voltage levels. The small power lines near your home are probably distribution level power lines (often 2 - 20kV); these will have a center tapped step down transformer to connect your home, at 120volts, to the grid.
We deliver power on the power grid as an AC voltage. That's alternating current, and that's what is available in your home.
Outside the homes, electricity is transferred at several thousand volts, for reasons of efficiency (less energy is wasted that way). This voltage is far too high for home use. (Also, home devices are set up for a specific voltage.)Outside the homes, electricity is transferred at several thousand volts, for reasons of efficiency (less energy is wasted that way).

The company called "Nationwide Homes" builds Modular homes. Modular homes are prefabricated homes, made in a factory setting and then shipped to the building site where the parts are put together.

all lumber and materials are shipped to the site already cut
Yes. In almost all cases, the current follows the voltage waveform. The peak amplitude of the current depends on the device or appliance that's drawing the current.
300 voltageAnswer for USA, Canada and countries running a 60 Hz supply service.In North American distribution system the most common voltage produced in a home is zero volts. The most common single phase voltage received from the utility supply is 120/240 volts.
The commercial voltage in Taiwan is 110V. The frequency of this voltage that is supplied to homes and other places is 60Hz.
the main wall panels are shipped to the site--often with plumbing and wiring already installed
Solar photo-voltaic cells produce dc current at a low voltage, so it is not directly usable in homes or factories. Cells may be placed in series to increase the voltage, but the current must be turned into ac using inverters, and the voltage transformed up to what the distribution system requires. Unless the installation is feeding an isolated home or homes without a main supply system, the power will simply enter the distribution system, and the user won't know any difference.
That depends where you are. In north America the outlets are nominally 110 volts. I have tested many homes and find them actually from 105 to as much as 127 volts
