UK Mains Supply Key Points In the UK we receive electricity with a r.m.s voltage of 230 V. This can vary slightly during the day depending on other usage in the national grid. But the variation is 5% at most. The electricity supplied is in the form of A.C. The properties of this supply are ideal for transport but not ideal for use in your home
