What is Nominal Voltage?
Nominal voltage definition
A Nominal voltage is a specified voltage level of a circuit or system that is used as a reference point for an electrical system.
Rated voltage and Nominal voltage
The Rated voltage is the highest voltage that the device can safely handle, while the Nominal voltage is the designed operating voltage.
Operating voltage
The Operating voltage is the actual voltage applied to the device terminals and is essential for reliable device performance.
Nominal voltage in a battery
The Nominal voltage of the battery is a standard reference value and is different from the actual voltage depending on the charging level.
The importance of voltage safety margin
Designers must consider the safety margin to ensure safe operation of the equipment within the rated Voltage range.
