Low-voltage refers to electrical systems that operate at a lower voltage level, typically below 50 volts. This range is considered safer for human interaction and is commonly used in applications like lighting, telecommunications, and security systems. Low-voltage systems are designed to minimize the risk of electric shock and are often used in residential and commercial settings. In addition to safety, low-voltage systems are energy-efficient and can reduce electricity costs. They are often easier to install and maintain compared to high-voltage systems. Examples include LED lighting and low-voltage landscape lighting, which provide illumination without the hazards associated with higher voltage levels.
