Different countries have made different decisions on the voltage and frequency of the electricity supply. A standard is necessary in each country to allow electrical equipment to be manufactured economically. Frequencies of 50 or 60 Hz are the only two standards used, and the nominal voltages vary from 100 v to 240 v for domestic supplies.


what kind of voltage converter do I Need To Run A Clothes Dryer When I Just Have Standard 110 voltage In My Home ?

A step down converter will convert the voltage from 220/230 volts to 110 volts. Converters are labeled to display their capabilities, such as "110V to 220V Converter". Read the instruction manual for your Clothes Dryer and sketch the plug. You'll want to know the voltage of the clothes dryer --- it'll likely be 220 V. You need to visit a major appliance dealer and ask to buy a step down converter after discussing the plug type and voltage found in the owner's manual.

How 220V and 110V supply both come in home?

The power is supplied to the home from a center-tapped transformer with the center tap grounded. The voltage from the center tap to each leg is 110 to 120. However, the voltage between the two outer taps is 220 to 240. Entering the home, the wires to each (hot) tap are black and red, respectively, and the neutral is white. A forth, bare, ground conductor is included for safety. It is joined to the neutral wire at the breaker box.
