This will be my last post on this topic. The National Electrical Code is updated every 3 years, and I assure you it's not riddled with out-of-date nomenclature. What I've learned from this post is that architects don't know about or care about electricity. If I'm trying to draw plans that electricians will use, I'll need to look elsewhere.

np, that was a funny line in the movie. The Wiki is a bit incorrect. The allowable voltage is 120v +/- 10% which takes it from 108v to 132v (root mean squared) before you can call the power company to complain. I would agree that informally 110v has been improperly used in different times and places. But I still think it odd that as a professional product like Chief Architect would follow a non-standard, out-of-date nomenclature. I would like to suggest that this be considered in a future update. Thanks.

I'm new to the product, and noticed that electrical products are listed as 110v and 220v. In the US, nominal residential voltages are 120v and 240v. Is there a reason for this discrepancy?
