Low voltage
Extra-low voltage (ELV) is an electricity supply voltage and is a part of the Low voltage band in a range which carries a low risk of dangerous electrical shock. There are various standards that define extra-low voltage. The International Electrotechnical Commission member organizations and the UK IET (BS 7671:2008) define an ELV device or circuit as one in which the electrical potential between conductor or electrical conductor and earth (ground) does not exceed 50V AC or 120V DC (ripple free).
