2. Voltage converter - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Voltage_converter

   In such cases, voltage converters need only be specified to convert any voltage within one range, to a voltage within the other, rather than separate converters being needed for all possible pairs of nominal voltages (110–220, 117–220, 110–230, etc.)

3. Electric power conversion - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Electric_power_conversion

   In North America and northern South America, it is usually 120 volts, 60 hertz (Hz), but in Europe, Asia, Africa, and many other parts of the world, it is usually 230 volts, 50 Hz. [2] Aircraft often use 400 Hz power internally, so 50 Hz or 60 Hz to 400 Hz frequency conversion is needed for use in the ground power unit used to power the ...

4. EmPower (aircraft power adapter) - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/EmPower_(aircraft_power...

   Even though EmPower adapters are rated at 15 volts instead of 12 volts like cigar lighter receptacles, most accessories made for the so-called "12-volt outlets" have enough voltage tolerance to allow for a voltage as high as 15 without step down DC-to-DC converter.

5. Mains electricity by country - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Mains_electricity_by_country

   Some countries have more than one voltage available. For example, in North America, a unique split-phase system is used to supply to most premises that works by center tapping a 240 volt transformer. This system is able to concurrently provide 240 volts and 120 volts.

6. AC adapter - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/AC_adapter

   A six-way connector on a "universal" DC power supply, consisting of a four-way X connector and two separate individual connectors (one is the nine-volt battery connector). The X-connector here provides 3.5 and 2.5 mm phone plugs and two sizes of coaxial power connector Universal laptop power supply with adjustable voltage between 12 and 24 volts

7. Mains electricity - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Mains_electricity

   As in the UK, 240 V is within the allowable limits and "240 volt" is a synonym for mains in Australian and British English. In the United States [12] [13] and Canada, [14] national standards specify that the nominal voltage at the source should be 120 V and allow a range of 114 V to 126 V (−5% to +5%). Historically, 110 V, 115 V and 117 V ...
