The table below summarises the plug types, voltage and frequency of electrical current in both Canary Islands and Kuwait.
| Canary Islands | Kuwait | |
|---|---|---|
| Plug Types | C, E, L | C, G |
| Voltage | 220V | 240V |
| 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 Kuwait there's more than one socket type in use.
You will need this adaptor:
Socket Type
(Canary Islands) to Plug Type G
(Kuwait)
Kuwait 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 Kuwait, you will not need an adaptor.
In Kuwait 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
(Kuwait)
Socket Type E
(Canary Islands) to Plug Type G
(Kuwait)
In Kuwait 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
(Kuwait)
Socket Type L
(Canary Islands) to Plug Type G
(Kuwait)
The voltages found in Canary Islands (220V) and Kuwait (240V) are not exactly the same, but the difference is tolerable, so you should not need a transformer.
The frequency found in Canary Islands and Kuwait is exactly the same (50Hz). Timing devices and appliances that use motors will function as expected under this frequency.
