What is the voltage in UK?
Although the normal voltage in the UK is 230 volts, it is not constant. The voltage at your property will vary due to the use of power and normal operation of the power supply network. Our network is designed to ensure that the voltage stays within the permitted tolerance or statutory limits.

Why different countries have different voltage?
Companies in Europe realized that supplying power at 220 volts instead of 110 volts would be cheaper. At a higher voltage, electric companies can deliver the same power with less current – picture a narrow stream flowing quickly compared to a wider stream flowing slowly. And less current allows for thinner wires.
