The Island Territory of Curacao is an island in the south Caribbean sea that belongs to the Netherlands. Whether you are going there to experience the warm climate, the scenery, or to visit family, you should know that some areas of Curaco use electrical plugs that are shaped differently from the ones you are used to in the United States. You might be planning to bring some of your electronics to Curaco, and since some places in Curaco also use American plugs, you may not have prepared to bring plug adapters. You should be prepared in case you cannot find one of these American-style electrical outlets, however. Besides the plug you are used to, with two flat prongs and one cylindrical one, Curaco also uses a very common type of plug found throughout most of Europe and Asia. It has three cylindrical prongs. Also another type of plug is used, so you will need two different plug adapters. If you come across outlets made for these types of plugs, you will not be able to plug your electronics into it unless you have a plug adapter. But be sure to buy the correct one, because there are six different types of electrical plugs used around the world, and likewise as many types of plug adapters.
Many places outside of North America also use a higher voltage current. 110v is the voltage used by North America and most of Central and South America. However, in most other continents, 220v is used. In countries where 220v is used, it is important to bring a voltage converter that has a 25% higher wattage rating than the appliance you are using it for. However, in Curaco, both of the voltages of 110v and 220v are used, so you will need to bring a voltage converter in case you cannot find any areas that use 110v.
