Mexico's electricity system is the same as that of the USA:
120 V; 60 Hz. Any electrical equipment you carry with you
that operates at the higher (240v) rate will need to be dual-voltage
(e.g. hair driers). A lot of electrical equipment (like video
cameras, digital cameras, laptops) that operate on 12 volts
via a product-specific adaptor will happily cope with dual
voltage - check the adaptor and the device instructions to
be sure.
You may need a socket adaptor.
Most plugs in Mexico are the same as in the US; two flat prongs.
Some have a third, circular prong for earth, and adapters
can be sought for these too if the plug you want to connect
to doesn't have the third (earth) prong socket. |
