The table below summarises the plug types, voltage and frequency of electrical current in both New Zealand and Latvia.
New Zealand | Latvia | |
---|---|---|
Plug Types | I | C, F |
Voltage | 230V | 220V |
Frequency of electrical current | 50Hz | 50Hz |
New Zealand uses Plug Type I.
In Latvia there's more than one socket type in use. You may require more than one adaptor.

The voltages found in New Zealand (230V) and Latvia (220V) are not exactly the same, but the difference is tolerable, so you should not need a transformer.
The frequency found in New Zealand and Latvia is exactly the same (50Hz). Timing devices and appliances that use motors will function as expected under this frequency.
