  2. Mains electricity - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Mains_electricity

    A 230 V distribution system will use less conductor material than a 120 V system to deliver a given amount of power because the current, and consequently the resistive loss, is lower. While large heating appliances can use smaller conductors at 230 V for the same output rating, few household appliances use anything like the full capacity of the ...

    230/400 V voltage is defined in "GOST 29322-2014 Mezhgosudarstvennyi Standart Napryazheniya Standartnye". Kenya: G 240 V 415 V 50 Hz Kiribati: I AS/NZS 3112 230 V 400 V 50 Hz Kosovo: C, F [50] 230 V 400 V 50 Hz Kuwait: C, G 240 V 415 V 50 Hz Kyrgyzstan: C, F 220 V 380 V 50 Hz Laos: A, B, C, E, F 230 V 400 V 50 Hz

  4. High voltage - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/High_voltage

    Specifically, ANSI C84.1-2020 defines high voltage as 115 kV to 230 kV, extra-high voltage as 345 kV to 765 kV, and ultra-high voltage as 1,100 kV. [2] British Standard BS 7671 :2008 defines high voltage as any voltage difference between conductors that is higher than 1000 VAC or 1500 V ripple-free DC, or any voltage difference between a ...

  5. Utility frequency - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Utility_frequency

    The waveform of 230 V and 50 Hz compared with 120 V and 60 Hz. The utility frequency, (power) line frequency (American English) or mains frequency (British English) is the nominal frequency of the oscillations of alternating current (AC) in a wide area synchronous grid transmitted from a power station to the end-user.

  6. Split-phase electric power - Wikipedia

    Generator sets used for construction sites are equipped to supply it directly. However, a large farm may be given a 230–0–230 (nominal) supply. An incidental benefit is that the filaments of 110 V incandescent lamps used on such systems are thicker and thus mechanically more rugged than those of 240 V lamps.

  7. Alternating current - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Alternating_current

    To illustrate these concepts, consider a 230 V AC mains supply used in many countries around the world. It is so called because its root mean square value is 230 V. This means that the time-averaged power delivered is equivalent to the power delivered by a DC voltage of 230 V. To determine the peak voltage (amplitude), we can rearrange the ...

  9. Switched-mode power supply - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Switched-mode_power_supply

    This feature permits operation from power sources that are normally at 115 VAC or at 230 VAC. The rectifier produces an unregulated DC voltage which is then sent to a large filter capacitor. The current drawn from the mains supply by this rectifier circuit occurs in short pulses around the AC voltage peaks.
