Australian Electricty & Electrical Appliances

Australia's electricity is supplied at 230/240 volts (AC), 50 hertz (this is the same as New Zealand). You should contact the manufacturer or supplier of appliances that do not operate on this voltage and they will be able to advise on the possibility and costs involved with converting and using transformers. Where conversion is required you should be aware that it tends to be expensive. TV's and VCR's operate using the PAL colour system. Television is broadcast on both UHF and VHF channels with a sound frequency of 5.5 megahertz, this is the same as New Zealand.
