What power outlets will be in Ecuador?

Post new topic

RyanSchaefer

I've been trying to find out what power outlets Ecuador uses, but I can't find a solid answer. I'm going to be bringing my laptop which accepts 100-240 watts and it's three prongs. I also plan on bringing my Nexus 10 which doesn't have a converter and has two prongs.

Same as US, Canada. 110/220v

linky

All my electronics are from Canada and I did not have prbs.

Most places have 3 pins. Though is the ground connected?. That is a different story.

Just be careful, sometime they put 110 outlet on 220v. I've seen a 'good electrician' do that in my friends new house. :/ believe it or not.
