High or Low Voltage?

Question

Hi! I´ve just started with LCA methodology and OpenLCA and I have a doubt about which electricity type should I use to run my analysis. Sometime I´ve seen people use High voltage and another times people use Low Voltage. Does anyone know which range of voltage fits best?

Thank you in advance!

Answer 1

In short: High (and medium) voltage is used in the industry, low voltage in households

Thank you very much for your answer! I do this question because I work in an industrial factory and normally all the equipment and machines work with low voltage (220 to 400V). However, what I've seen in most of the examples of LCA is that people choose High Voltage to run calculations...
