VOLTAGE
Australia operates on 220/240 volt AC electrical power (running on cycles of
50 hertz). For electric razors, many hotels are fitted with 110 volt sockets.
ELECTRICAL OUTLETS
Two or three-blade plugs are required for electrical outlets in Australia. The
two main blades of these plugs are angled, unlike the vertical blade configuration
seen on North American plugs. For any electrical equipment or appliances that
do not match the angled, two or three-blade configuration, an adapter or converter
is necessary. NOTE: In order for an appliance to work safely, both the plug
and the voltage of an electrical appliance must be converted.
