Uk laptop in spain? Will it work?

Question

I'm going on holiday to spain in a couple of weeks, but i need to take my laptop with me. I know i'll need a adapter plug, but will i have a problem because of different currents of eletricity? Or are they are same?

Answer 1

most of the currents there are 220-240v

so that's fine.... usually in Spain they have 110-120v only at the kitchens and bathrooms.

Answer 2

It'll be fine as long as you have an adapter, I've used mine there fine.

Answer 3

YES NO PROBLEM YOU WILL NEED A TWO PIN ADAPTER FOR YOUR  ENGLISH PLUG

Answer 4

I now live near Marbella & bought my UK laptop with me when we moved.  It works absolutely fine, as you say you'll need an adaptop plug.  The same applies to any UK items, hair-driers etc.

Hope this helps.

Answer 5

Yes it will, along with your tv telephones dvd player and anything else you decide to take along with you.

All you will need is your adapter plug, but i do suggest that you always disconnect from electric supply when not in use as sudden thunderstorms common there and will blow your laptop to bits. We purchased a spanish laptop and it works fine in Oz & the UK.

Answer 6

Laptop will work fine.

You may wish to check the cable to the phone socket though if you intend to use the internet as older houses will have a 4 ply cable and not a six as used in the uk ... or is it the other way around?? Either way a local cable can be purchased in any Ferreteria (hardware store) or El Corte Ingles (Department store).

If you are in a recent build house (last 10 yrs) or a hotel or using wifi of course all the above is not necessary!

Enjoy the hols!
