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