The disorder results from overproduction of collagen, a naturally occurring protein found in the skin. It is unknown what causes this overproduction of collagen to occur but the immune system is believed to play a significant role. Morphea is not contagious or passed down in families.
A typical US household voltage is 120/240 V, 60 hz, single phase. There is a tolerance and the actual measured voltage is rarely exactly 120 volts. A common reading at my house is 117 volts. Industrial motors are made and rated in multiples of 115V (115, 230, 460, and 550Vac) for use on line voltages in multiples of 120 V (120, 240, 480, and 600 Vac).
The average electricity consumption of a US family of four is in the neighborhood of 50 kWh per day, or 1,500 kWh per month. Similar figures apply for Canada. Assuming an average electricity cost of $0.12 per kWh, that translates into about $6 per day for electricity, or $180 per month.s I explain in my About me page, my family of four got our household use down to 180 kilowatt hours a month which is about one sixth the average of my home province of Ontario.
