120-Volt
A "120-Volt" electrical system is a common voltage level used in residential and light commercial buildings in North America. It is the standard voltage for most household appliances, such as refrigerators, microwaves, and televisions. This voltage level is designed to provide a safe and efficient power supply for everyday use.
In a 120-Volt system, electricity is delivered through standard outlets, which typically have two or three prongs. The lower voltage helps reduce the risk of electrical shock compared to higher voltages, making it suitable for indoor environments. This system is part of the broader electrical grid that powers homes and businesses.
