Consider the voltage. The second consideration is voltage, or the pressure under which current flows through an electrical system. While most U.S. appliances work at 110 volts, many foreign power companies generate electricity at 220 volts. Some appliances have a toggle switch that allows them to work with both voltages, but for non-dual voltage appliances, you'll need a converter to step down the 220 electric current to 110 so your appliances won't burn out.
1 The outlets, plugs, and switches in your home can handle higher levels of power. 2  They can take up to 125 or 250 volts, depending on the nominal voltage. 3  That's the upper end of the voltage range for both the power grid and the typical wall socket in your home. The power delivered to your home is 120 or 240 volts. 2  This is called nominal voltage.. 3  That means it's the standard voltage as measured at the transformer outside your home. 4  Nominal voltage can vary up to plus or minus 5 percent from its stated definition.
