It depends on the local utility power company and the the neighborhood transformer taps used. It also depends on how far away the transformer is from the house. There is a voltage drop depending on the size and length of wire. It sometimes is 120v, 125v, 130v or anywhere in between. It doesn't make much difference.

What is the voltage that causes the most human deaths each year?
120 volts A/C, or some might refer to it as house current.
Can a 7000 watts generator power a house?
A 7000 watt generator us typically intended for 2 - 15 or 20 amp circuits at 120 volts or 1 - 30 amp circuit at 240 volts. When you say, "power a house," if you mean the whole house the answer is, No. You would need a generator capable of supplying a continuous 24000 watts or more to do that. But a 7000 watt generator is a nice one for powering some lights and your gas furnace blower during a power outage when properly connected. I do not know what the wattage is of an electric furnace to know if it can run one of those.
What happens when a regulator doesn't get enough volts?
A regulator loses some voltage in regulating its output, known as the dropout voltage. So the input voltage must be at least the output volts plus the dropout volts. If the input voltage is too low, the output will drop out of regulation.
Is electricity countable or uncountable?
Electricity is considered uncountable because it refers to a form of energy rather than discrete units that can be counted. We use it in terms of measurements (like volts, watts, or kilowatts) rather than as countable items. Therefore, we say "a lot of electricity" or "some electricity" instead of "two electricities."
Should all three phases of 3 phase motor are to be equal on no-load and load conditions?
Ideally all three phase currents will be equal. There may exist some voltage imbalance from the power source, which will result in unequal currents.
Does a house plug have 115 volts or 240?
It depends which country you are in. Some countries use 115 Volts AC for household supplies, some use 220, 230 or 240 Volts AC. See the link below for a list of which countries use which voltage.
Does every house in the UK have a house number?
Not every house is numbered in the UK. Some properties are named instead of being numbered.
What is the voltage that causes the most human deaths each year?
120 volts A/C, or some might refer to it as house current.
How many volts does a house run on?
120 volts and 240 volts. Typically 240 volts is supplied to the house electrical service entrance. It is split into it's 120 volt components via two buss bars. Hooking a circuit up to just one bar yields 120 volts. Hooking into both gives 240 volts.
Why are some currents cold and some warm?
there are some warm currents as they flow along the earths surface while there some cold currents as they travel below the earths surface
Why are warm currents warm and cold currents cold?
there are some warm currents as they flow along the earths surface while there some cold currents as they travel below the earths surface
Why would all my house voltage go to 200VAC when connected to a portable generator?
Assuming you normal house voltage is 120 volts, sounds like something is wired wrong. If you had the house (or part of it) running on generator and then took some voltage readings, you may have damaged some of the items in the house already.
Can a car battery run a 120v device?
No. You'd need some fairly serious converters to go from 12 V to 120 V The above answer is 100% correct. And may I add that a battery is 12 volts DC (Direct Current) and 120 volts is AC (Alternating Current). These are two totally different currents and they do not mix.
Compare and contrast surface and density currents?
Density currents are slower than surface currents b/c surface currents are powered by the wind.
Why are some density currents warm and others cold?
there are some warm currents as they flow along the earths surface while there some cold currents as they travel below the earths surface
How many volts is a 90 amp stock alternator?
Most likely 12 volts if it is on a car. Some boats use 24 volts, or in the case of my boat 32 volts.
What are some ways that ocean currents and wind are similar?
They are similar because if you think about it carefully, the ocean currents are caused by the air currents and the air currents are caused by the ocean currents, so, it is all a scientific cycle.
