   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Mains_electricity_by_country

   Mains electricity by country includes a list of countries and territories, with the plugs, voltages and frequencies they commonly use for providing electrical power to low voltage appliances, equipment, and lighting typically found in homes and offices. (For industrial machinery, see industrial and multiphase power plugs and sockets.) Some ...

3. Electric power distribution - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Electric_power_distribution

   Seen with an oscilloscope, the domestic power supply in North America would look like a sine wave, oscillating between −170 volts and 170 volts, giving an effective voltage of 120 volts RMS. [18] Three-phase electric power is more efficient in terms of power delivered per cable used, and is more suited to running large electric motors. Some ...

4. 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.

5. Electronic kit - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Electronic_kit

   An electronic kit is a package of electrical components used to build an electronic device. Generally, kits are composed of electronic components, a circuit diagram (schematic), assembly instructions, and often a printed circuit board (PCB) or another type of prototyping board. There are two types of kits. Some build a single device or system.

6. Power distribution unit - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Power_distribution_unit

   Data centers face challenges in power protection and management solutions. This is why many data centers rely on PDU monitoring to improve efficiency, uptime, and growth. [2] [3] For data center applications, the power requirement is typically much larger than a home or office style power strips with power inputs as large as 22 kVA or even ...

7. Mains electricity - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Mains_electricity

   Mains electricity, utility power, grid power, domestic power, wall power, household current, [2] or, in some parts of Canada, hydro, is a general-purpose alternating-current (AC) electric power supply. It is the form of electrical power that is delivered to homes and businesses through the electrical grid in many parts of the world. People use ...
