This completely depends on whereabouts you live. For example:
In the UK = 230 V
In the USA =120 V
It is less in the USA because they think it is safer, this is nonsense because anything over 60 volts will kill you.
As in the US and Canada, UK sockets have three contacts: line, neutral, and protective conductor (earth). The line and neutral contacts are protected from interference by the use of shutters that are opened by the plug's earth pin.

What is the mains voltage in your home?
The mains voltage in a typical home in the United States is 120 volts. In other parts of the world, such as Europe, the mains voltage is usually around 230 volts. It's important to note that voltage can vary depending on location and electrical systems in use.
How many watts is equal to 4.3 amps at 230 volts?
In normal simple circuits WATTS = VOLTS x AMPS So if you use a 12V car battery 4 amps is 48 Watts American 110V mains 4 amps = 440 Watts English 240V mains 4 amps = 960 Watts
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.
How do you plug in a pot that is 220 to a 110?
Use a step-up transformer from 110 volts to 220 volts. Try getting one at Home Depot or SEARS.
How many watts can you use on a 16 amp plug?
On a 16 amp plug, you can use a maximum of 3680 watts (16 amps x 230 volts) of power. It's important not to exceed this limit to prevent overloading the circuit and causing a fire hazard.
Where do you plug in US appliances?
You can plug US appliances into plug sockets in the US. You can also plug them into sockets in Mexico, Canada and several other countries that use 110 to 120 volts mains electricity.

How many amperes does a standard 60 watt light bulb use?
Watts = Volts X Amps. Amps=Watt / Volts. So, with a 240V mains, a 60W bulb draws 0.25amps. On a 12 system (car/auto) a 60W bulb draws 5 amps. On a 110V mains, a 60W bulb draws .55 Amps.
Will your US laptop work in the UK?
Not without a suitable mains adapter to charge the battery. The UK mains voltage is 230 Volts - the US mains runs at just 110 colts.

Where is the PS vita charger?
The Vita's charger comes in the box. It is in two parts - one with a mains plug and adaptor, the other has a USB plug and one to fit into the Vita. You can use the latter to charge directly from a PC, or both together to charge from the mains.
If you buy a television or computar in another country why might you have trouble using it in the US?
For one thing, the supply voltage in the USA is different from almost anywhere else. In Europe, for example, the mains voltage is between 230 volts (in much of the mainland Europe) and 240 volts in the UK. Much of Asia is of a similar voltage. Therefore most electrical appliances can be used across these countries with little problem as the mains voltage is very similar. However, in the USA, the mains voltage is only 110 volts, which is not enough to run most foreign appliances. Furthermore, if you take an American appliance to Europe and try to use it (even if you buya plug adapter to cope with the different shaped plug) , it will be severely damaged when the supply voltage is more than twice the US voltage. To cope with this, as well as getting a plug adapter you will also need a transformer to alter the voltage from 240V to 110V.
How many volts does a 1968 Chevelle use?
