If you use the definition of electricity as; The supply of electric current to a house or other building for heating, lighting, or powering appliances, then any voltage will fit into this range.

What are electricity pylons used for?
Pylons are there to carry electric wires which send large amounts of electrical energy across the country from where it is generated to where it is used. Pylons usually carry electricity at many thousands of volts because this is the efficient way to transmit it. Typical voltages on pylons are 100,000 volts up to a limit of about a million volts. The wires carried on pylons are usually made of stranded aluminium with a steel core, with overall diameters up to about one inch. A line of pylons carrying six wires making up two 3-phase circuits and operating at 132,000 volts can carry a power of about 200 megawatts, enough for a town of 200,000 people.
How many volts of electricity are in a phone line?
Phone lines operate at 48 volts when you pick the phone up to make a call and while talking, but 90 volts are sent to the phone you are calling to make the phone ring. This is a holdover from the old rotary phones that had the bells that were struck by a little hammer.
How many volts is used in a 100 watt light bulb?
The voltage isn't decided by the lamp, but by the supply the lamp is hooked up to.
What is an electrical part called a resistor?
It is a component or substance which reduces the flow of electricity in a circuit. Their will be one in your mobile phone charger to stop 240/230 volts being routed into your phone( which would probably charge it very quickly but then it would blow up!) Also a resistor is the opposite of a conductor i.e something that resists conducting electricity.
How can you produce 220V electricity?
To produce 220 volts of electricity you would need some form of a generator or alternator with the correct configuration to output 220V. The other ways to produce 220 V: (1) Using a step up transformer if the voltage is lower than 220 V. (2) Using a step down transformer if the voltage is higher than 220 V.
What non sighted fish can genarate 400 volts of electricity?
an electric eel can produce up to 400 volts of electricity. this is more than enough to kill a human.
How many volts electrical can electrical eels?
The electric eel frequently emits low voltage pulses for navigational purposes and to communicate. When using it in defense or when hunting they are capable of shocks of up to 600v.
How many volts of electricity does a tesla coil have?
Your first touch of live primary Tesla coil voltage (10000 volts) has a good chance of being fatal and will easily stop your heart. The coil dicharge goes up to one and a half millions volts.
Can 30 volts damage computer components?
At least 3000 volts of static electricity must build up before a person can feel ESD. For example, static electricity can build up on you as you walk across a carpeted floor. When you touch another person, you both receive a shock. If the discharge causes pain or makes a noise, the charge was probably above 10,000 volts. By comparison, less than 30 volts of static electricity can damage a computer component.
How do you make 16 volts at 12 volts car battery?
Step up transformer.
What can you power with 2000 watts of electricity?
Any devices using 240 volts up to 8 amp and any devices using 120 volts up to 16 amps.
How many volts does it take to light up a car light bule?
6 volts
What citrus fruit make up electricity?
Lemons And Limes do make electricity but not a lot.
What are the tiny particles that make up electricity?
The electrons make up the electricity. For commercial production of electricity one needs to move the turbine in a magnetic field.
How many volts does a potato produce?
a little less than one volt will be produced with each potato

Why electricity is generated converted transmitted mostly in multiples of 11 volts?
More like multiples of 110 volts... 110 volts is the voltage of standard house current, so handling it in even multiples of 110 makes it easier to build transformers to step it up and down.
