There are a couple of industrial sites with 110 volts steel mills, smelters

Ha, pretty good idea about the use of the 110 to keep stuff from getting stolen. The only thing is I'm not sure that a power grid the size of the US's could handle 220 to anywhere. But I will admit 220 is a heck of a lot safer to deal with than 110 is.
