The table below summarises the plug types, voltage and frequency of electrical current in both Denmark and Greenland.
| Denmark | Greenland | |
|---|---|---|
| Plug Types | C, K | C, K |
| Voltage | 230V | 220V |
| Frequency of electrical current | 50Hz | 50Hz |
In Denmark 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
(Denmark) to Plug Type K
(Greenland)
Greenland also uses Socket Type C, which is used in Denmark. 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 will need this adaptor:
Socket Type
(Denmark) to Plug Type C
(Greenland)
Greenland also uses Socket Type K, which is used in Denmark. If using an appliance that has a Type K Plug in the Type K Sockets of Greenland, you will not need an adaptor.
The voltages found in Denmark (230V) and Greenland (220V) are not exactly the same, but the difference is tolerable, so you should not need a transformer.
The frequency found in Denmark and Greenland is exactly the same (50Hz). Timing devices and appliances that use motors will function as expected under this frequency.
