Default Question regarding Phantom Power

Hello everyone,

I hope someone out there can answer my question, and I hope it doesn't
come across as too naieve!.

The question is regarding Phantom Power. At college, there is a 32
track mixing console, each track has an individual 'phantom power'
switch. The question arose in class that if every single track on the
mixer had phantom power enabled and phantom power runs at +48V, would
this equate to 1536V??, or isn't it as simple as that?. I realise most
mic's wouldn't draw 48V of current, but if that's the case, why is
phantom power set at 48V if the microphones don't need that much to
operate?.

I've searched for an answer to this question on the web, but I've
found no answers. Hope someone can help me!.

Thanks in advance,
Neil.
