The table below summarises the plug types, voltage and frequency of electrical current in both Belize and Netherlands.
Belize | Netherlands | |
---|---|---|
Plug Types | B, G | B, A, C, F |
Voltage | 110V, 220V | 230V, 127V, 220V |
Frequency of electrical current | 60Hz | 50Hz |
In Belize there's more than one plug type in use.
What type of plug does your appliance have?
In Netherlands there's more than one socket type in use. You may require more than one adaptor.

The voltages, 110V, 110V and 110V, which are present in Belize, are significantly different to what's used in Netherlands.
Some appliances are compatible with multiple voltages. To find out if your appliance is one of them, check the appliance label and/or instruction booklet. An example appliance label is below.

Is your appliance compatible with the voltages used in Netherlands (230V, 127V and 220V)?
If your appliance is not compatible with multiple voltages, you will need a transformer to adjust the voltage input when using your appliance in Netherlands.
The frequency of electrical current found in Belize (60Hz) differs to that found in Netherlands (50Hz).
Most equipment is not affected by differences in frequencies. Some exceptions are:
