Canada is a country in the northern part of North America. It is bordered by the United States. Canada uses the same type of two flat pin adapter as the United States and Mexico uses. If you are traveling to Canada, US and Mexico you will only need this type of adapter to use your Australia, China or European Appliances. Canada adaptors allow you to plug in your Australia, China and European appliances while visiting Canada. The adapters change the pin configuration to fit into Canada wall outlets.
The Deluxe Going In Style Canada Adapter Plug Kit comes with two adapter plugs and ships Priority Mail with tracking. This Kit is great for someone traveling to Canada from overseas such as Australia, China or Europe.
The Standard Canada Adapter Kit comes with a grounded plug. The Basic Canada Adapter Kit comes with a non-grounded plug Adapter plugs allow electrical connections up to 240 volts.
An adapter plug does NOT change the current or voltage (this requires a converter) unless your appliance is dual voltage. Non-grounded adapters may NOT be used with appliances that have grounded plugs; for these you will need a grounded adapter. Many of our customers find it handy to have multiple adaptors while traveling - either to run several appliances simultaneously or simply as a backup.

Grounded Adapter Plugs If you are traveling with a grounded United States dual/multi-voltage appliance or using a grounded Transformer you will need to use a grounded adaptor plug. A grounded United States plug has two flat blades and one round pin.
Non-Grounded Adapter Plugs Going In Style offers non-grounded adapter plugs for use with your voltage converter, transformer, or dual/multi voltage appliance. A non-grounded United States plug has two flat blades.
Cycles: 50 Hz vs. 60 Hz.
Canada operates on 120 volt electricity and is generated at 60Hz (Cycles) Alternating Current. United States 110-120 volt electricity is generated at 60Hz (Cycles) Alternating Current. Many foreign countries operate on 50Hz. This difference in cycles may cause the motor in your 60Hz United States appliance to operate slightly slower when used on 50Hz foreign electricity. Most modern electronic equipment including battery chargers, Lenovo, HP, Asus, Toshiba computers, iPods, etc., will not be affected by the difference in cycle.
Computers and Apple Products If you are traveling overseas with a Toshiba, HP, Lenovo, Asus, laptop or Apple device such as an iPad, chances are you won’t need a voltage converter. Most laptops are multi-voltage and will operate on voltages ranging from 100 to 240 volts. However, computers do need to make safe connections to foreign power systems and a surge protector is recommended and you will still need an adapter to use your plug.
