Electrical devices are built to work with the voltage in your home. All electrical devices use the same voltage, which is either somewhere around 110 V (in some regions) or somewhere around 220 V (in others).

Please note that "voltage" is not the same "power", the measure of how fast energy is used. Power (in watts) is basically the product of voltage (in volts) and current (in amperes). Different devices use the same voltage; but devices that use a lot of power (such as electric irons, or showers) use more current.

How do you know how much electricity is consumed by electric iron of 240 V and 1200 W?

The voltage does not matter for that calculation but you take the 1200 W and that is the power. All the time the iron is running it takes 1200 W - except when the thermostat (temperature controller) turns it off. Usually that happens when the red light on the iron goes out, if it has one. Multiply the power of 1.2 kilowatts by the time in hours that it is actually drawing power from the supply, and the answer is the energy in kilowatt-hours (also known as Units).

How much voltage in three phase line in electric in India. each phase rating 230V?

If the phase voltage is 230 V, then (providing you are describing a three-phase, four-wire, system), then the line voltage will be 1.732 larger -i.e. 400 V.


Can a 240 volt electric fan be run on 277 volts?

No...that's too much voltage, and 277v is normally three-phase power.


Why does iron wool burn better than an iron nail?

Since filaments of iron wool are much thinner than an iron nail, they therefore have a much higher ratio of surface area to volume, and burning takes place at the surface, so the more surface, the more easily it burns.
