Because that allows a wide range of manufactured electrical goods from all over the world to be used in Pakistan. Voltages are standardised to 120 v or 230/240 v throughout the world.
A standard two prong outlet in the US carries 110 volts. Actual voltage in your area may vary from below 100 to 140 volts, but these extremes are unusual. Most of the rest of the Americas (North and South) uses the same standard. In Europe, the standard voltage in a "two prong outlet" is 220 to 240 volts. In the US, this voltage is reserved almost exclusively for use by stoves and ovens in the home.
Yes. In the United States, standard household voltage is 120VAC @ 60Hz. If properly installed, you can also run standard devices at 220 or 240 volts AC in the US.
Nominal ( Means Ideal or what we tell you it should be )120 volts AC Any voltage at or over 105 volts will make everything operate normally Expect to see 110 volts to 117 volts in your home depending on what you are running.
Household appliances usually have a voltage of either 110 or 220 volts; there should be a sticker somewhere that tells you the voltage for specific appliances. Make sure you don't plug it into the wrong voltage. Especially plugging an equipment designed for 110V into an outlet that gives 220V will burn your equipment.
You don't. You need test equipment to measure voltage.
bcoz we dont require too much voltage when working in home so in home generally 220v is preferred & in industries 3phase connection is used for heavy loads (440v)
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.
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.
In the United States, 110-120/240 VAC is the standard.
No, it will cause the bulb to blow. A 12 volt light is DC voltage and your home outlet is AC voltage.

Pakistan was the country that was formed to be the home for Muslim, Indians.
Yes. In the United States, standard household voltage is 120VAC @ 60Hz. If properly installed, you can also run standard devices at 220 or 240 volts AC in the US.
The standard voltage in the home (110 V in North America) will operate most workshop tools except very big table saws and bandsaws.
What are you considering "high voltage" wiring? If you mean just standard home wiring of 120 and 240 volts then you can put the insulation right up to it.
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.
