Voltage
Output: 240 volts, alternating at 50 cycles per second
Madhya Pradesh is credited as one of the most developed and
industrially advanced states of India. Thus, the place has a very stable
and good electricity condition. Like most states in the country, the
voltage output in MP is also 220-240 volts, alternating at 50 cycles per
second. Travelers from overseas must have all the requisite information
regarding its electricity conditions. It helps them ascertain, whether
or not, the electric appliances that they carry along with them adjusts
with the voltage of Madhya Pradesh. In other words, it also prevents
electric mishaps.
In case, you are carrying an electric device that does not accept a
voltage of 240 volts, you will require a voltage converter that will
adjust the device to the voltage of the state. The voltage converter
will help to regulate the electric current of the device and ensure its
safety. Generally, there are three types of converters available in the
market, namely Resistor-network Converters, Transformers and Combination
Converters. Resistor-network converters support 50-1600 watts and are
ideal for high-wattage electric appliances. You can use them on devices
like hair dryers and electric irons.
Transformers, on the other hand, are suitable for low-wattage
appliances and work on 50-100 watts. You can use them on appliances like
laptops, handycams, radios, battery chargers and MP3 players. The
combination converters are a combination of the resistor network and a
transformer. Thus, depending on the requirement, the combination
converters facilitate switching between both the modes. Another thing
that should be taken into account is the type of plug that can be used
in the state. Sockets in the state accept plugs with either two or three
(arranged in a triangle) round pins. If your electric appliances have
any other type of plug, a plug adapter becomes necessary.
