How much voltz / VAC and HZ has a light switch in my house that goes to a wall outlet?

Question:I know it's on a 15 amp breaker...

Answers:
OK here we go.

Amperage is a measure of current, a breaker prevents the current from going over the specified amount.

Volts Alternating Current (VAC) varies from country to country. Here in the United States it typically runs between 110 and 120 VAC.

The frequency of the alternations in the current measured in cycles per second is called Hertz (Hz) typically in the US it is about 60Hz or 60 cycles per second.

Joe nailed it...In the US the household standard is 120VAC/60 Hz. The Europe and Asian standard is 220VAC 50 Hz.
