  • Understanding US Household Voltage: 120V AC Explained
    The standard supply voltage in the US is 120 volts AC (alternating current).

    However, it's important to note that:

    * There are some areas in the US that use 240 volts AC. This is typically for high-power appliances like electric stoves, water heaters, and air conditioners.

    * Voltage can fluctuate slightly. The voltage supplied to your home may be slightly higher or lower than 120 volts.

    It's always best to check the specific voltage requirements of any electrical device before plugging it in.
