The table below summarises the plug types, voltage and frequency of electrical current in both Algeria and Canary Islands.
| Algeria | Canary Islands | |
|---|---|---|
| Plug Types | C, F | C, E, L |
| Voltage | 230V | 220V |
| Frequency of electrical current | 50Hz | 50Hz |
In Algeria there's more than one plug type in use.
What type of plug does your appliance have?
In Canary Islands there's more than one socket type in use. You may require more than one adaptor.
Socket Type C
(Algeria) to Plug Type E
(Canary Islands)
Socket Type C
(Algeria) to Plug Type L
(Canary Islands)
Canary Islands also uses Socket Type C, which is used in Algeria. If using an appliance that has a Type C Plug in the Type C Sockets of Canary Islands, you will not need an adaptor.
In Canary Islands there's more than one socket type in use. You may require more than one adaptor.
Socket Type F
(Algeria) to Plug Type C
(Canary Islands)
Socket Type F
(Algeria) to Plug Type E
(Canary Islands)
Socket Type F
(Algeria) to Plug Type L
(Canary Islands)
The voltages found in Algeria (230V) and Canary Islands (220V) are not exactly the same, but the difference is tolerable, so you should not need a transformer.
The frequency found in Algeria and Canary Islands is exactly the same (50Hz). Timing devices and appliances that use motors will function as expected under this frequency.
