linajännitteen
Linajännite refers to line voltage, a fundamental concept in electrical engineering and power distribution. It is the voltage measured between two conductors in a power line, or between a conductor and ground. In most residential and commercial settings, the linajännite is the voltage supplied by the utility company to buildings and equipment. The specific value of linajännite can vary significantly depending on the location and application. Common linajännitteet in North America include 120 volts, 208 volts, 240 volts, and 480 volts for three-phase systems. In Europe and many other parts of the world, the standard linajännite is often 230 volts.
Understanding linajännite is crucial for selecting appropriate electrical appliances, ensuring safe installation practices, and designing efficient
