In Japan, utility companies should maintain 100V mains voltage
within 101V +/- 6V at utility supply point.

I think it is rare to mains voltage goes below 90V at the equipment
point in general, but I think it not bad idea to provide more margin
by designing equipment to work perfectly witin 85V to 110V.

a large industrial facility (factory), this may be significant.

The volt-drop might tend to be higher in 100V than 230V systems. Also, in
many cases, the utility will be providing supply to a building or an entire
factory site, at MV voltages, and the customer will be responsible for
transforming to 100V (or 110/115/120/230/240V, etc.), and they will usually
be free to decide whether they want to bother keeping to the +/- 10% range
or not.

Yes, we have experienced similar problems at some sites in Japan. 
This is one of the reasons why we specify our power supplies (we buy 
them in) to cover the range from 85 V.

RE: Japan mains voltage

2002-06-04 Thread Robert Wilson

In designing power supplies, it is common to use nominal mains voltage
+/-15% (e.g. in North America, 115 +/-15%, or 98V to 132V) as a design
guideline. The same +/-15% is generally true for European 230 V designs.
Thus, using +/-10% for Japan seems a little skimpy. Given the rather odd
collection of voltages, line frequencies and power systems in use there,
if it were me, I'd allow for AT LEAST +/-15%.

However for some situations in Japan ,  it seems you can even  expect
85 V.
So we are planning to define a  general rule that a product for Japan

RE: Japan mains voltage

2002-06-04 Thread ron_wellman

Hello Eric,

Some companies have environmental test programs that subject their products to 
all types of power line conditions that are not covered in regulatory 
requirements. As far as line voltage tolerance testing, this depends on the 
specifications you publish externally for your products. However, what 
tolerance you test to internally may be greater than what you publish with a 
product specification.

It just so happens, when I was with the old Hewlett-Packard, we usually tested 
to +/- 12% for test and measurement products when the published tolerance was 
+/- 10%. However, these products were intended for light industrial and 
laboratory environments.

Finally, to the best of my knowledge, I haven't heard of Japanese line voltages 
dropping below 90 Vac.

Japan mains voltage

2002-06-04 Thread georgea



I can only speak for ITE products per IEC 60950.  Note that this
standard requires testing for safety at -10% and +6%, or 90V to
106V for Japan ITE rated at 100V only.  Note that this must be
done for both 50Hz and 60Hz, both of which are used in Japan.

I am not aware of any stated 85V test requirement for Japan, and
would be surprised if long term 15% voltage drops were common in
Japan.  As in any country, there can be momentary brown outs
where the voltage may briefly sag to even lower values.

Darren,

The information that I have seen from the two sources listed below is that
Japan is nominally 100V 50/60 Hz.  The 50 Hz is primarily in Eastern Japan
(Tokyo, Kawasaki, Sapporo and Yokohoma).  The 60 Hz is primarily in Western
Japan (Osaka, Kyoto, Nagoya and Hiroshima).

Check out the two web sites below.  They both contain lists for voltages

The standard voltages are 100 V (the standard outlet) and 200 V, and one

is North and South, but I don't recall which half uses 50 Hz.

Much of Japan is 100V 50Hz (worst case for transformers).  Japan approval
should cover 50/60Hz.  Hotels generate a 120V 60Hz for US appliances.
 
The 200V supply is more complicated.  I had a JEOL electron microscope that
wanted 3-phase 200 volts.  They would not let us run it on 208V 3-phase and
we had to install an elaborate conversion network.

Darren -

the Japan mains voltage in the range you request is 100V.
As I understand it, though this is open to correction, Japan
has both 50Hz and 60Hz distribution systems, depending upon
where you are located, even on the large island.  I do note,
however, that the US Dept. of Commerce's publication,
Electric Current Abroad, indicates only 50Hz.  I have
other sources that indicate both 50Hz and 60Hz.

Japan Mains Voltage is 100V. The north half of the country is 50 Hz and the
South Half is 60 Hz. Or is it vice-versa...

Can anyone tell me what the mains voltage is in Japan,
 
I  think it is 110V but I do not know the frequency.
 
apart from this, does any one know of a web site  that gives information
about the mains voltage and frequency of various countries ?

The nominal voltage is 100V, and the frequency can 50Hz or
60Hz depends to the area.

 apart from this, does any one know of a web site that gives
 information about the mains voltage and frequency of various
 countries ?

Some URLs are listed in the section 2.2 of the s.e.e.c FAQ, at
http://users.metro2000.net/~purwinc/compliance_faq.html

Darren,

The mains voltage in Japan is 100V +/- 10%. Half of Japan is supplied from
a 50Hz system and another half is supplied from a 60Hz system.

It's 100 V, and half the country has 50 Hz and half has 60 Hz.

According to World Electricity Supplies from BSI,
voltage is 200/100, 60 Hz.
We have certainly produced 100V 60 Hz specials for
Japan.
