The table below summarises the plug types, voltage and frequency of electrical current in both Papua New Guinea and Faroe Islands.
| Papua New Guinea | Faroe Islands | |
|---|---|---|
| Plug Types | I | C, K |
| Voltage | 240V | 220V |
| Frequency of electrical current | 50Hz | 50Hz |
Papua New Guinea uses Plug Type I.
In Faroe Islands there's more than one socket type in use. You may require more than one adaptor.
Socket Type I
(Papua New Guinea) to Plug Type C
(Faroe Islands)
Socket Type I
(Papua New Guinea) to Plug Type K
(Faroe Islands)
The voltages found in Papua New Guinea (240V) and Faroe Islands (220V) are not exactly the same, but the difference is tolerable, so you should not need a transformer.
The frequency found in Papua New Guinea and Faroe Islands is exactly the same (50Hz). Timing devices and appliances that use motors will function as expected under this frequency.
