Most electronic equipment runs on far less that both of these voltages. Most likely from 5 to 12 volts DC. To get down to these votages it has to be processed by a transformer. Good equipment will have a switch on it so that you can chose what the input voltage will be. All this switch is doing is changing the taps on the primary side of the control transformer. The secondary side of the transformer is the working voltage of the equipment 5 to 12 volts. The secondary side of the transformer is then put through a full wave bridge rectifier to change it to DC. When you charge your cell phone this is all that you are doing when you plug it into the wall, except without the switch to select the 240 volts. The rectifier is built right into the wall PAC and out comes the voltage your cell phone is looking for.
This planet is usually running 120 ac or 220 AC That is what most of the people knows as power. There is and never will be a set of voltages that will run everything. but there are some industry standards personal computer are 3v,5v,12v ,12v. these voltages are not are set but are carefully chosen for efficiency a room heater will take forever to heat a room at 5v. so the conclusion is voltages are chosen for efficiency and nothing more then that.

Examples of electronic components?
Many electronics have several components in common. The most common are capacitors, resistors, transformers, and batteries. Others electronic components include antennas, terminals, connectors, and switches.

What is the most popular kids song?
The most commonly recognised song for both children and adults is the Happy Birthday song.
How many volts can electronics and appliances take before they are ruined?
Most small appliances should not be exposed to more than 110V. Larger appliances like stoves, washers, or a refrigerator usaully run on 220V. Any voltage other than the specified voltage can ruin electronics or appliances as they are calibrated to run at very specific power levels.
Which is better 220 versus 110 volts both with 20 amps?
At 20 amps the 220V will supply twice (2x) the power that the 110V will supply. The answer depends upon your meaning of the term 'better'. If you have a specific size load that you are supplying such as a motor that will accept either 220V or 110V then by using 220V you will have less of an impact from voltage drop and the conductor size will be smaller due to the current being 1/2 of the 110V. If by better you mean which one will give you the most power then the obvious answer is 220V.
Does a 30 amp camper plug have 220 volts?
No, a 30 amp shore power plug is strictly 120volts. A 50 amp shore power plug is technically a 220v system, however the camper uses the two 120v wires in the cord separately. There are no 220v appliances in RV's today.
Can you buy products in the US with 220 volts?
Most likely, yes. The US doesn't ban such products, but they may be hard to come by. You will find more 240v products than 220v.
What voltage do most household appliances use?
Most household appliances use either 120 volts or 240 volts, depending on the country and the type of appliance. In the United States, most outlets provide 120 volts for small appliances and lighting, while larger appliances like stoves and dryers require 240 volts.
Can you use a ES 220v lamp in the UK?
Absolutely. Although the UK voltage is stated as 240 volts, most equipment can cope with a 10% fluctuation either way. However - if you need to replace the buln, you may have problems getting Eddison Screw (ES) ones - as the 'stantard connection in the Uk is a bayonet fitting. There are places (such as Maplin Electronics) who should stock the bulbs - or a converter.
How can you use your washing machine with 220V 50Hz in 220V 60Hz power supply?
Yes. The only possible changes would be to the speed of the motors and time keeping. Depending on the make and construction results may vary. Most modern machines use electronics to control motors and timing, so should be OK.
How can one tell weather a motor is wired for 110 or 220 volts without looking at any label's?
You should always check the labels, but in most cases the power cord connectors are different between the 110v and 220v.
What is the energy of a wall socket?
Either 120 or 220 volts, depending on what part of the world you are in. If you are in the United States, most power coming out of a wall socket is at 120 volts. In Europe and elsewhere, its at 220 volts. This is why if you are traveling abroad with US-based electronics you need a converter to use them in other countries.
Why is 220 volts the main voltage in the Philippines?
1) Possible... You can buy a converter in any electrical supplies store. Plug in your appliance(s) in this converter then plug the converter into your 220V outlet. 2) Most of the Automatic Voltage Regulator has a 110V outlet. Plug in your appliance in this outlet and plug in the AVR in the 220V outlet. Hope I help you

Would South African 230 volts appliance work on 240 volts in Australia?
Yes. Both countries use almost the identical electical electrical systems. The voltage from both an Australian and South Africa outlet can vary from 220v-250volts depending on distance from transformer and current load on the line.
