Important Step Up / Step Down Transformer Notes:

    Important Step up / Step Down Voltage Converter Notes:



  • When using transformers in step down mode (220/230/240 volts to 120 volts) in foreign countries with an appliance that has a US plug you may need one or more of the grounded plug adapters shown in our World Electric Guide. Many countries have multiple outlet configurations potentially requiring more than one grounded plug adapter.

  • When using transformers in step up mode (120 volts to 220/230/240 volts) in North America with foreign plugs you will need the WA-5 plug adapter which will accept any foreign plug except for some of the ones from India and South Africa (our WA-10L).

  • When using transformers in step up mode (120 volts to 220/230/240 volts) in North America with an appliance with the European Schuko plug (missing a ground pin) you will also need the WA-GF plug adapter

  • See our World Electric Guide for the plug adapters that you must have.

  • Comparison chart for all of our transformers can be found here
