Only small personal generators generate a voltage of 220 volts. This level of voltage is used usually during power outages. For voltages that power the electrical grid, the voltage is generated at a much higher voltage and then transformed by the use of Transformers, into the voltage that is required by different distribution services.

Should you connect your PC direct to 220 without a power supply?

No. A PC would needs to have a power supply in order to take a 110 or 220v power input and convert it to the basic 12v power <and other rails> it uses. Now most desktops can and do have the ability to handle 220v power. Consult your manual and make sure you have the little red switch on the back set to 220 unless your PSU is auto-switching. As always, check with your manual and manufacturer before assuming you can handle 220. Hope that helps!


A toaster on 220 V line draws a current of 5 A How much heat does it generate in 10 minutes?

First calculate the power: P = I2R. Power will be in watts. Then multiply power x time to get the total amount of energy transferred. If the time is in seconds and the power in watts, the energy will be in joules. (In this case you need to convert the time to seconds first.)
