in india domestic power supply is 220v-50hz, while in usa, it is 110v-50hz. Give the advantages and disadvantages of 220v supply over 110v supply

The advantage to receveing 110V is less injury to the nervous system in case of electric shock.

The disadvantage is due to more current to compensate for the power you are more likely to get more burn (skin burning) due to the 110V.

The disadvantage of 110V as compared to 220V is more losses due to resistence.
Higher current needed to compensate for lower voltage creates more heat and therefore more resistence in the system and thus the need for more power.
