Throughout the USA the normal supply voltage is 120/240 v in a split-phase 3-wire system using a neutral and two lives with 240 across the live wires and 120 v from either live to neutral. Appliances up to 1500 watts operate on 120 v and, above that, 240 v.
208 v three-phase is also used, which has 120 v from any live wire to neutral.
Larger users can get 480 v three-phase, with 277 v between live and neutral.

Are electric cook tops 110 volt or 220 volt?
Mine was 220 and I suppose they all are.
Are electric blankets 110 volt and 220 volt or just 110?
Typically they are either 220V or 110 volts not both. Plugging a 11o volt blanket to a 220 volt line has a huge risk of fire.
How do you wire 220 volt from 2 110 volt lines. you have a concessions stand that is wired for 220 but everywhere you have been lately just keeps giving you 2 - 110 volt line?
If you combine two 110 volt power lines it does not give you 220 volts, the voltage will be the same. The only way to turn 110 volts into 220 volts is with a step-up transformer.
Can you use 110 volt printer with 220 volt?
You need a step down voltage transformer that converts 220 volt to 110 volt to use a 110 volt printer with 220 volt. You can get good quality transformers at East West International in Houston, TX. If you order online or over the phone, they can ship it to you in 2-3 business days.

Why does 220 volt line put out 250 volts?
A 220 volt line may put out 250 volts because this specification features voltage that varies between 220 and 250 volts. In other countries, the electricity varies in voltage between 110-120 volts.

How can I install a 110 receptacle alongside a 220 receptacle using the 220 receptacle wires for power?
While you can physically do this it violates the Electrical Code. 110 Volt and 220 Volt receptacles are required by the Electrical Code to be on separate breakers for safety reasons, this would put them on the same 220 Volt breaker.
