How to Use a Travel Power Adapter?

1. WELCOME TO OUR PRESENTATION How to Use a Travel Power Adapter?

2. Presented by Power-supply International travelers must consider power needs for electronic devices and appliances while abroad. Several countries have specific electrical systems and sockets that differ from those you see at home or at any place in your locality. Travelers can safely charge a range of equipment while out of the country with accessories such as such as a socket adapter for plugs and power converter/transformer. A socket or plug adapter converts the existing flat plug configuration used in the United States to conform to the socket configuration in another country. Travelers can check power requirements for devices during trip planning so that personal electronics are always ready to use.

3. Steps to Use Travel Power Adapters Step 1: check the electrical system and plug type for the country where you will be travelling with your travel power adapters. Consult a reference that lists electrical specifications for countries. It will help you understand which travel power adapter can be used in which country. Step 2: Purchase a travel power adapter to fit the electrical outlet for the country based on the type of plug or socket used. Plug adapters bear a letter corresponding to the plug configuration. Single travel power adapters are available for selected countries. Step 3: Identify the power requirements for the device by checking the label on the back of the device or information on the power transformer for the voltage and amperage to determine whether a converter is needed. Alternatively, consult the owner’s manual for electrical or power requirements. Appliances such as a hair dryer or devices such as a cell phone may specify a dual voltage rating for 110V and 200V, so that they don’t require a power converter in many countries – only a plug travel power adapter for the outlet. If the device doesn’t specify a dual-voltage rating, it is a single-voltage appliance.

5. Step 4: Calculate the wattage for the device if it’s not specified by multiplying the voltage and the amperage. Wattage is the amount of electricity needed by a device for power or for charging. If a small device requires a small wattage and doesn’t have a transformer, it may be damaged or fried by a country’s electrical system because a transformer or converter isn’t used to prevent a power surge. Step 5: Purchase a travel power adapter with converter as needed based on determinations from steps 2 and 4. Everyone who already are using travel power adapters recommending to use a converter that is rated at least 50% higher than needed. For example, use a 350W converter or higher for 220W device. Step 6: Attach the travel power adapter cord to the device when you arrive at your destination. If you also use a power converter/transformer, then plug the device’s power cord into the power socket on the converter. Step 7: Match the prongs of the power plug for the device or converter to the slots on the adapter and then insert the plug adapter into the wall outlet. Prevent a power surge or sparks by checking that the cord and adapter fit tightly together before plugging it into a working power supply.
