The U.S. uses a household voltage of 110 V. However, electric stoves and dryers are wired with
220 V lines. Which would cause less damage --plugging a 110 V-rated curling iron into a 220 V
outlet, or a German-made 220 V-rated curling iron into a 110 V outlet? Explain. (Note: 110 and
220 V outlets are made in different shapes so that appliances cannot be accidentally
interchanged.)

Answer:

In the United States and neighboring countries, however, household outlets run at 110 or 120 volts. This can pose a serious problem for travelers. Connecting a 220-volt appliance to a 110-volt outlet can damage or destroy the appliance
