[Amps] TL922 Power Plugs

[Glen Zook]

The standard house wiring in the United States consists of a single-phase center tapped 240 VAC secondary winding on the distribution transformer ("pole pig").  Depending on the individual system the primary distribution voltage is usually between 7200 and 7800 volts or 14,400 and 15,600 volts.  In some of the older sections of major cities the primary voltage can run between 4400 and 4800 volts.  However, most of the older lower voltage distribution circuits are being "updated" to the higher voltages.

Oh, boy! If you had over 100V dropping on the wires, you used headphones wire! Just out of curiosity: the pole pig provides twice 120VAC on 2 separate pairs of wires that connect in series, or some 3 phase configuration?
