    I was being a bit tongue in cheek, I do not honestly expect the USA to up its voltages for final distribution or it's HV networks any time soon, but I do find the Saudi example fascinating, and I hope it goes well for them.

    It cannot be worse than the situation in Brazil which seems to manage to have both 110V and 220V in adjacent towns, using the same plugs and sockets for both systems.
