What voltage do I need in a residential garage in Alberta?

The voltage required in a residential garage in Alberta, Canada depends on the electrical appliances and tools that will be used in the garage. In general, most household appliances and tools run on standard 120-volt circuits, while some heavier-duty tools such as table saws, air compressors, or welders may require 240-volt circuits.
To determine the voltage needed in your residential garage, you should consider the electrical requirements of the appliances and tools that you plan to use. This information can typically be found in the owner's manual or on the product label. If you're not sure about the voltage requirements, you can consult with a licensed electrician who can assess your needs and recommend the appropriate voltage for your garage.
In Alberta, residential electrical systems must comply with the Canadian Electrical Code (CEC), which specifies minimum electrical standards for safety and performance. A licensed electrician can ensure that your garage electrical system is installed properly and meets the requirements of the CEC.
