BTW, nobody has 220 in there house. Its 240. 120 and 120 makes 240 on a single phase system in the US which most residential homes in America have. There will be some exceptions but very few.

Spoken like an electrician

I always refer to machine voltages as 110 or 220 and that seems to be the norm in our area as to nomenclature.  Rarely to I hear 120 volt but do hear 240 volt often.

I have seen voltages called out by people and products as 110, 115 and 120. Here I have 125 and 250 as our service runs a little high and checks out with meters at that.

yes very true. my semester of electrical was a long time ago. my power usually runs at about 117-118 volts at the outlet.

does that mean i have 220, 240 or  or 234-236 for my welder?

It varies -- place I used to live was close to a substation and transformers used to blow all the time -- I had 130v and around 250v at the outlets on a consistent basis. When I lived in rural WV I had around 110v and 220v at the outlets.
