  • Choosing between standard 120-volt and 240-volt outlets depends on your appliance needs. Standard outlets handle everyday devices, while 240-volt outlets power heavy-duty equipment like EV chargers, ovens, and dryers, ensuring they run safely and efficiently without overloading circuits.

  • Three-prong outlets were standard for older appliances, but four-prong outlets provide an added ground wire for improved safety. Modern codes require four-prong connections for dryers and ranges to reduce shock risks and ensure safer electrical operation in your home.

  • Using 240 volts allows appliances and equipment to run more efficiently with less energy loss. It provides the power needed for heavy-duty devices like dryers, ovens, and EV chargers, helping them operate smoothly and reducing strain on your electrical system.

120V vs. 240V Outlets

There are major differences between a 120V outlet and a 240V outlet that determine which is best for your application.
  • Appearance
    An outlet's appearance is a clear indication of its type. A 120V outlet is the standard two-prong or three-prong version, while a 240V outlet has four prongs (two vertical, one "L", one half-circle).
  • Uses
    Powering everyday home appliances like lamps and microwaves is the main function of 120V outlets. A 240V outlet is for EV chargers and heavy-duty appliances such as dryers and ovens.
  • Location
    120V outlets are commonly found throughout homes, every 12 feet in wiring. 240V outlets are installed in specific locations for high-demand appliances, like garages, laundry rooms, and kitchens.
