Type C Electrical Plug used in Fuerteventura


The electricity supply in Fuerteventura is 220 volts/50 hertz, which means that appliances from the UK/Ireland will work with a simple adapter that can be picked up in a Supermarket or Hardware Store (Ferretería) on the island for a couple of euros.
The plug sockets are type F (the type used in Germany and most of mainland Europe), although some older properties may still be using a simple two-pin socket that accepts Type C plugs.

A transformer may be required to use appliances from the US/Canada, though typically laptop power supplies and phone chargers will accept 100 – 240 Volts input (look for 100-240V on the power supply).
