In/Out, Hot /Common; Back/Forth, AC

Electrical current enters a house on wires that are connected to a fuse or circuit breaker box. The fuses or circuit breakers protect the circuits from overloading, overheating and possible fire.
From there, power is distributed through out the house on wires to the lights, switch's and plug ins. In North America household current is 110 or 220 volts.
110 volts for the lights and light appliances etc..
220 volts for electric stoves and some other high current draw fixtures.

i have no theory what that first answer is all about, yet i will in ordinary words imagine they attempt to spread some unsolicited mail. so a procedures as your question is going, i do not imagine there's a "customary" sort of plugs in a house, i do not ignore that for the time of new structure plugs are positioned six ft aside, that's executed to do away with the will for extension cords, that can often times be a hearth possibility With that suggested, I attempt now to not use extension cords any further than six ft. desire this facilitates answer your question.

Actually electricity runs within wires, not a house.
If you don't believe that, cut all the wires in your house and see how much electricity you'll have available... ;-)
