Electricity in Switzerland

Electricity

Electricity in Switzerland runs at 230 Volts, alternating at 50 cycles per second. You will need a voltage converter in Switzerland if your device does not handle this level of electricity. There are different types of voltage converters you can buy to suit the electricity in Switzerland. Resistor-network converters can suit anything from 50-1600 watts, which is a good match for the electricity in Switzerland. However, these are best when used for short periods of time. Transformers generally suit 50 to 100 watts, and provide more continuous use. These work great for low wattage appliances. Fine the right device to suit your electricity needs in Switzerland.
