  1. 220v in Mallorca


  2. I live on the costa del sol and the voltage here is 210 to 230, and all appliances use a 2 pin plug. you can get adaptours for 3 pin and others in hardware stores and supermarkets in the holiday towns a long the cost del sol. Hope this is helpful.

  3. 220

  4. Yes, as said, it is a standard voltage across the EU of 220 v or so.  Spain uses 2 round pins with earth /ground connection on the side tabs and adapters are easy to get hold of at airports and even some local supermarkets.  However, a couple of words of caution from experience.  Depending on exactly where you are, Spanish supply is notorious for spikes so use a surge protector for electronic equipment.  Things like video recorder and tvs from the UK will not work well as the transmission frequencies are different.  Nothing to do with the power supply on that one.  Also all spanish supply is rated at a specific current, often quite low and it is easy to overload thehouse supply if you connect any power applicances. I cannot have dishwasher and washing machine and oven on all at the same time, for example.  The house pays the standing charge according to a max 5, 10 or 15 amp supply ans as 1kW is more or less 4 amps, it is easy to trip the supply.

    Have a nice trip anyway.

  5. Usually about 230v as opposed to our 240, but most British electrical stuff works fine with a plug adaptor.

  6. 230V. Standard across Europe, just the plugs that change depending upon the country

  7. I live near Malaga and my voltage is 220 volts

  8. 220 average

  9. Most Voltage across Spain/Canaries/Balerics fluctuates between 210 & 230 Volts although the difference you would hardly notice (with the exception of anything that requires heating - i.e ovens, hairdriers etc)

  10. 220 v
