    Travellers Tips
    Electricity
    The electrical current in Australia is 220-240 volts AC. The local plug-and-socket system uses three pins. These are not the same as those utilised in Britain and only first-class hotels tend to have appropriate converters.Good quality hardware stores and electrical stores may carry adaptors but, failing this, an Australian plug could be fitted. A more practical solution is to purchase appropriate adaptors before you leave your country.
