🇵🇫 French Polynesia to 🇦🇺 AustraliaYou'll need an adapter. Plugbert believes in you.
Australia uses 230 V and French Polynesia uses 220 V, but similar nominal voltages do not guarantee compatibility. Check that your device's input rating covers the destination supply.
What to pack
Plugbert recommends
Type I (Australian) adapter
You need a plug adapter. Plugs from French Polynesia (Type A, B and E) don't fit the Type I sockets in Australia. A Type I (Australian) adapter fits the listed socket families there. Socket variants can differ; check the actual outlet and adapter rating.
Tip: a "universal" travel adapter may be useful for several destinations. Check its wall-side plugs, grounding and power limits against your trip.
