According to the European Fire Safety Alliance:
The total number of fires of electrical origin in the EU is estimated to be 273,000 per year.
According to the US National Fire Protection Assocation:
Fire departments responded to an estimated average of 46,700 home fires involving electrical failure or malfunction each year in 2015–2019.
Stats aside, which do you think will cause a bigger spark, 110 or 220?
