The table below summarises the plug types, voltage and frequency of electrical current in both Cayman Islands and Aruba.
| Cayman Islands | Aruba | |
|---|---|---|
| Plug Types | A, B | A, B, F |
| Voltage | 120V | 127V |
| Frequency of electrical current | 60Hz | 60Hz |
In Cayman Islands there's more than one plug type in use.
What type of plug does your appliance have?
In Aruba there's more than one socket type in use. You may require more than one adaptor.
Socket Type A
(Cayman Islands) to Plug Type B
(Aruba)
Socket Type A
(Cayman Islands) to Plug Type F
(Aruba)
Aruba also uses Socket Type A, which is used in Cayman Islands. If using an appliance that has a Type A Plug in the Type A Sockets of Aruba, you will not need an adaptor.
In Aruba there's more than one socket type in use. You may require more than one adaptor.
Socket Type B
(Cayman Islands) to Plug Type A
(Aruba)
Socket Type B
(Cayman Islands) to Plug Type F
(Aruba)
Aruba also uses Socket Type B, which is used in Cayman Islands. If using an appliance that has a Type B Plug in the Type B Sockets of Aruba, you will not need an adaptor.
The voltages found in Cayman Islands (120V) and Aruba (127V) are not exactly the same, but the difference is tolerable, so you should not need a transformer.
The frequency found in Cayman Islands and Aruba is exactly the same (60Hz). Timing devices and appliances that use motors will function as expected under this frequency.
