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