What are the names for the different voltage levels in the different countries of Europe for the Low Voltage Directive. I mean what are the names of the voltages below 50VAC and 75VDC, the voltage from 50VAC to 1000VAC and 75VDC to 1500VDC and the voltages above those levels for the different count
