Does anybody know if the power outlets are different in Paris from those in US, and if US equipment would work in Paris at their frequency?

Maximus · by **Maximus** » 19 September 2008

No, definitely the power outlets are different. But don't worry about that. There are special adapters for that, available almost everywhere.

Us equipment may need more than just simple outlet adapters. It is possible for you to use a power adapter also.
