Tim, I cannot tell for North America, but for the European Community EN 50160 is a good start. Fact sheet here (from a test lab): http://www.reo.co.uk/files/kbase/EN50160.pdf

August 2005 12:50 To: EMC-PSTC (E-mail) Subject: Electricity supply definitions for North America and European Community Can anybody point me to references that give the definitions of the electricity supply for North America and the European Community I know that North America use 110Vac 60Hz and that the EU use 230Vac 50Hz but what are the tolerances (EU changed since enlargement?) for voltage and frequency what are definitions of normal supply in respect of brownouts and blackouts. I have been searching on the web but I guess I am using the wrong terminology in the search. Any help out there please?
