Yes, Singapore uses exactly the same electrical voltage and plugs as the UK, so you can bring your British appliances and use them just as you would at home.
For electrical appliances to work the wires must be correctly connected and plugged in to the receptacle.
If you buy an adapter
You use electrical energy.
You may have experienced an electrical surge that zapped your appliances. If so, they're dead.check your breakers, but I would unplug the appliances first and plug them back in individually,in order to see if your overloading the circuits.Good luck!
yes they do! :) Europe uses a different voltage than the US and also has different shaped electrical plugs, so you can't just plug a European appliance into an American electrical outlet. If you can get the right kind of current, then the appliances will still work.
No, not without a converter. Australia's current is 240 volts at 50 hertz.
Hong Kong uses the same electrical output/sockets as the UK so US appliances will need an adaptor.
No, appliances up to 1500 watts run on 120 v, while for larger equipment 240 v is available in most properties.
New Zealand domestic electrical appliances are designed to work on 230V AC, and 50Hertz. The free plug has its 3 pins in arranged in an arrow formation.
Of course not. You cannot work in Singapore with a visitor's visa. This would be illegal. You have to apply for a Singapore work visa.
I was a US Government employee. Me and my family were sent to England where we resided for 7 years. We shipped all our household goods with us including all our US electrical appliances. Once there, we purchased transformers which come in various wattage ratings. The transformer actually converts the 220voltage down to the required 120 volts for US products. Anything with a motor would only be turning at 50 cycles a second vise the 60 cycles of US current. This would only affect the playing speed of say a record player (obselete now) but radios, toasters, coffee pots or anything of that nature would work fine. Hope this has helped. You need a transformer, as mentioned above. Note that for running UK appliances in the US that is not necissarily true, as the US has 120/240V service. You'd just need a special outlet for your 240V appliances. +++ Some, but by no means all, electronic appliances have 110/240V switches to allow use on either system.
When the power to a home goes out, no electrical appliances will work, Some people like to have power over others. You have the power to decide what you do with your life.
