The
electricity situation in Bangalore is quite good, within the minimum
power outages taking place. The voltage centers around 240 Volts,
alternating at 50 cycles per second. In case, you are carrying any
electric equipment that is not compatible with the voltage in Bangalore,
it is advisable to carry a voltage converter with you. You can get
voltage converters, for adjusting the electric current, in Bangalore
also. Basically, three types of voltage converters are used here,
resistor-network converters, transformers and combination converters.
Resistor-network converters support 50-1600 Watts and are usually used
for high-wattage electrical appliances. Transformers support 50-100
Watts and are the best for low wattage appliances. Combination
converters are, as the name suggests, a combination of the two. You also
need to take care of the types of plugs that your electrical appliances
have. In India, sockets are made for only two types of plugs, either
those with two round pins or those with three round pins, arranged in a
triangle. In case of any other type of plug, carry a plug adapter with
you.
