उत्तर
The given sentence is right.
Explanation:
In standard domestic electrical circuits, the live wire carries the current at a high potential of 220 V, while the neutral wire completes the circuit and is maintained at zero potential (0 V). Because of this, the resulting potential difference or voltage between the two wires is exactly 220 V.
