06 France: Voltage




Description

This article is from the Paris, France FAQ, by Thierry E. Toniutti and Delphine Kensit nemo_n@yahoo.com.

06 France: Voltage

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.
