Electrical Power Around the World
The voltage listed are the "nominal" figures reported to be in use
at most residential or commercial sites in the country or area named. Most electrical
power system are prone to slight variations in voltage due to demand or other
factors. Many former 220V countries have converted or are in the process of converting
to the EU standard of 230V. Generally, this difference is inconsequential, as
most appliances are built to tolerate a certain percentage above or below the
rated voltage. However, severe variations in current can damage electrical equipment.
The electrical power frequency is shown in the number of hertz (cycles per
second). Even if voltages are similar, a 60 hertz clock or tape recorder may not
function properly on 50 hertz.
Not all areas of a country may use all types of plugs listed for the country,
since there may be regional differences based on the power system in a certain
area.
NOTE:
- Always check with a qualified electrician. Especially the voltage and frequency
rating.
- Always check for required standards
- Information is given neither correct nor accurate
