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).
Voltage, Frequency and Plug/Outlet Type in United States of America / USA. Electricity in United States of America / USA is 120 Volts, alternating at 60 cycles per second. If you travel to United States of America / USA with a device that does not accept 120 Volts at 60 Hertz, you will need a voltage converter. There are three main types of voltage converter.
