How many volts are in a wall outlet? The actual voltage supplied to a home from the electric utility is 240 volts, split across two legs.. Most outlets are wired to one leg and a neutral leg. This provides half the total incoming voltage, or 120 volts. 240-volt outlets are wired to both of the incoming legs, providing the full voltage.
Please, if you can't tell whether your outlet is 240 volts, please don't read the voltage directly from the outlet with a voltmeter. And FYI, Homes in the US often have two types of outlets, as big appliances-such as dryers, use higher voltage.lease, if you can't tell whether your outlet is 240 volts, please don't read the voltage directly from the outlet with a voltmeter.
