Hello everyone, Thanks again for everyone who responded.
Just to close the loop, I found that the best reference to help me came from the ITI (former CBEMA) web site. But don't take my word for it. Check out: http://www.itic.org/technical/iticurv.pdf (My thanks to Peter Tarver for pointing me to a document which referenced this data.) I just wish that they would give this document a proper name, number and release date. It's kind of awkward referring to it as the "ITI/CBEMA Curve Application Note". One shouldn't complain when you get something for free, though!

Try http://www.ita.doc.gov/td/machinery/ecabroad.html, and have a look at the bottom of the page for voltage tolerance by country. Try also http://www.kropla.com/electric2.htm (apparently, http://www.cris.com/~kropla/electric.htm moved). Hope this helps.

I am currently writing an internal Hardware Quality Assurance standard and would like to find a reference standard which details AC line voltage variation. For operating ranges, we are currently using: - 90 to 125VAC on 100/120VAC nominal - 190 to 260VAC on 220/235VAC nominal And for Brown-out, we are using: - 80VAC for 100/120VAC nominal - 160VAC for 220/235VAC nominal I have no little idea why these numbers were chosen and would love to refer to some national or, preferably, international specification. For once, Google has left me high and dry. Any help would be appreciated.
