The table below summarises the plug types, voltage and frequency of electrical current in both Panama and Bahamas.
| Panama | Bahamas | |
|---|---|---|
| Plug Types | A, B | A, B |
| Voltage | 110V | 120V |
| Frequency of electrical current | 60Hz | 60Hz |
In Panama there's more than one plug type in use.
What type of plug does your appliance have?
In Bahamas there's more than one socket type in use.
You will need this adaptor:
Socket Type
(Panama) to Plug Type B
(Bahamas)
Bahamas also uses Socket Type A, which is used in Panama. If using an appliance that has a Type A Plug in the Type A Sockets of Bahamas, you will not need an adaptor.
In Bahamas there's more than one socket type in use.
You will need this adaptor:
Socket Type
(Panama) to Plug Type A
(Bahamas)
Bahamas also uses Socket Type B, which is used in Panama. If using an appliance that has a Type B Plug in the Type B Sockets of Bahamas, you will not need an adaptor.
The voltages found in Panama (110V) and Bahamas (120V) are not exactly the same, but the difference is tolerable, so you should not need a transformer.
The frequency found in Panama and Bahamas is exactly the same (60Hz). Timing devices and appliances that use motors will function as expected under this frequency.
