National_appliances_in_Germany < Sandbox/Sandbox

If you intend to visit Germany and you take your American appliances there are a few things you must explore. Should people want to identify additional information on fuse disconnect switch, there are many libraries you might consider investigating.

First you must understand that most American appliances are designed to run off of 110 volts and Most German appliances are designed to run off of 220 volts. This means that if you select an American stereo, razor, computer, and so on right into a German outlet it will eliminate it!! The prongs are different so it's difficult to produce this error but outlet plugs are offered and this does happen often. The main reason the plugs are offered is because some American appliances are Dual-Voltage and may elope of 110 or 220.

To discover if your appliance is Dual-Voltage you have to look at the power data on the appliance, either on the appliance itself or on the power field on the wire. If you still havent found the information make reference to your users manual. If your equipment isn't double voltage the only real choice you've to be able to utilize it in Germany would be to obtain a power converter.

Energy converters can be bought on the world-wide web (needless to say), or select equipment and hardware stores. If you should be somehow allowed use of a U.S. Army base in Germany, you can get one at the Post Exchange.

Whenever choosing your energy converter make sure that it's transforming 220 volts to 110 volts and not one other way around. Next, you need to select how big is the energy converter where you will need for the device( s) this would be relatively self explanatory. Check the power output of the unit and make sure it is add up to or below, below is recommended, the voltage of the converter.

Using certain clocks/alarm lamps may run slower or faster than normal even if the time is dual-voltage. The only way in order to avoid this really is to be certain the time is of high quality and relatively new. If the clock is attached to a power converter this should perhaps not be an issue.
