06 France: Voltage

Most of France has switched to 220-230 volts AC, although a few parts
may still run on 110-115volts. Current alternates at 50 cycles, not
the 60 in use in the United States of America.
If you are bringing shavers, travel irons, hair dryers or whatever,
take along a voltage transformer. Remember the outlet prongs are
shapped differently also.
