The mains voltage is 230 volts, and the frequency is 50Hz.
The mains voltage in Cyprus is 230 volts at a frequency of 50 Hz.
Yes but we use different plugs so if you are coming here you will need an adapter.
The standard household AC electrical power mains voltage in Greece is 230 volts, with a frequency of 50 Hz.
In the UK the mains voltage is 240 volts
In Barbados, the mains voltage is typically 115-120 volts with a frequency of 50 Hz. It is always recommended to verify this information with the local utility provider or check the voltage indicated on electrical outlets in the specific location you are in.
220/240 volts AC
No it wont. Our TV system uses a 'frame rate' of 50 frames per second - the US uses 60. Additionally, the US mains voltage is different to ours.
-- 60 Hz mains in North America, Latin America, a few other places -- 50 Hz mains in Europe, Asia, most other places -- Anything at all, from DC to daylight, depending on the application, in non-mains circuits
It depends on where you live, as most countries have their own standards. In the UK, for example, the nominal (named) mains voltage is 230 V, but it is allowed to vary between +10% and -6%. The nominal frequency of this voltage is 50 Hz, and this is allowed to vary between +/-1%. In North America, the standard nominal supply voltage is 120 V at 60 Hz.
A sonometer is used to determine the frequency of alternating current. A step down transformer is used for the determination of frequency of A.C. because the voltage of the A.C. mains is 220V, which is dangerous. The step down transformer reduces this voltage to 6 volts.
A 'service mains' is not associated with an electricity 'transmission' system, but with a low-voltage 'distribution' system. The service mains is the name given to the cable that connects a building to the low-voltage mains supply.
You get power, which is voltage * current (so both!).
