Hello Scott, 

In the case of 12V accessories to plug in normally they have a regulator
installed to prevent the overvoltage. 




Thank you.

Cigarette socket in vehicles

        




I have learnt that cigarette sockets supply two voltages: 12 or 24 volts. 
12-volt sockets are widely used in light duly vehicles while 24-volt sockets
in heavy duty vehicles.  The sockets are identical in terms of configuration
and dimensions.  Is there any mechanism to prevent a 12-volt equipment from
being plugged in a 24-volt socket? 
  
Thanks, 
  
Scott
