Travel Plug
December 26th, 2005
do you need travel plugs in ireland?
Let's get this straightened out.
You've asked your question without giving enough information and you've received some misleading answers.
1. Where are you coming from?
2. What are you trying to use on the Irish electric supply?
The supply all over Europe has been standardised at 230 volts, though actual voltages may range from about 215 to 245.
The standard current all over most of the world outside the US is at 50 Hz AC -- the US uses 60 Hz.
You will certainly need an adaptor to adapt the plug on your appliance if you're travelling from the USA.
You may or may not need a means of adapting the voltage.
You can't adapt the frequency.
Many recent electronic appliances like mp3 players, cameras, laptops etc. have a switch-mode power supply unit that will run off anything from 100-250 volts, 50-60Hz -- in which case you need only the plug adaptor.
Any appliance which says "AC only" -- forget it if it's not 230volt.. You have been warned on that one. No matter what the guy in the store tells you.
The cost of a converter is probably as much as the cost of buying an appliance to operate off the correct voltage and since you're not likely to get sound advice in stores in the US you're better not wasting your money.
If you want more detailed advice tell us exactly what you wish to take and what the existing power unit or electrical information panel says.
