This chart presents an overview of power supply systems throughout the world. The configurations listed for the electrical systems of industrialized countries are accurate and reliable. However, the configurations listed for developing countries merely represent the most common systems. The absence with single standards prevents an exact listing of configurations available. In addition to the lack of consistent configurations, power supply systems in most developing countries tend to be ungrounded.
