If this is for a range your looking at 50 amps max and 220 volts. why would you care. your not going to be able to buy a 110 volt range. now a commercial range if your curious look at the name plate. Or look at the color of the leads black red blue that would be 240 volt brown orange yellow 480 volt. good luck, and don't kill yourself.

Look at anything plugged into it that has a voltage rating. For example a light bulb will say something like 120V printed on it next to its wattage rating. A stove usually has a voltage on a metal tag on the oven door frame..
There aren't that many choices so you are likely to get 120 or 240 around your house. Any appliance must say so you can solve that pretty quickly.

44,000 volts and dont try testing it with some junk meter. This stuff will reach out an touch you. Litteraly. Thats a power line. Now a receptical or outlet can be determined with a meter or throw the breaker. If the breaker has 2 terminals you have 220v if 1 pole then 110.

The only reason the Volt isn't selling... Is because of G.W.Bush's wrecking the economy, in 08... Jobs are far & few between,, the surplus, that was, when "W" took office, in 2000... Was completely gone, in 08, & the country was in bankruptcy... The ONLY thing, that separated this country, from all the rest, was its strong working class... Thanks to "W, that no longer exist, & the masses, can't afford a Volt... Now, Republicans want to repeat the entire process... Thanks a lot,,, "W"... Even Republicans, run from "W" , like he's got the plague...

You buy a multimeter and set it to AC on the highest range setting. These range from 13 dollars to several hundred dollars depending on the features and brand.

An electric range is more than likely 220volts. You can buy testers that will give you an exact reading. Go to a home improvement store or hardware store.

the electric company in my area has genarators that put out 2400v, then it gets stepped up in a switch yard to 135,000v for transmission, when it gets to a sub-station it is stepped down to a 12,470/7200 3 phase delta sytem for distribution, when it hits your transformer it's stepped down again and changed to a 1 phase center tapped 240/120

Check it with a volt meter.
