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