But don't use electronics like a desktop PC with 110 V and 60 Hz on a power converter.Īpart from the fact that power converters are not really practical luggage for traveling.ġ. com: The largest supplier of Step Up/Down voltage converters, power inverters, plug adapters, and power accessories in the USA and. They are only good for 'stupid' heavy power devices (e.g.

Power converters change just the voltage not the frequency. If everyone is simultaneously using the devices mentioned by chengkp, then probably not, and you will trip the circuit breaker.Most power chargers for devices running on DC (laptops, cameras, phones) accept a range of AC currencies and frequencies. 136.72 2000 watt voltage converter, 110/120v, 220/230/240v 2000 watt all-in-one voltage converter, step-up for 110 volt (120v) to 220 volt, step-down for 220 volt (230v, 240v) to 110 volt, best option for European appliances being used in USA/Canada, and vice versa. If everyone is only using the circuits for charging phones, tablets etc, you should be fine.

Unfortunately on a cruise ship, this means whatever devices you are using, plus whatever devices are being used at the same time by the other (2) cabins sharing the circuit. As you have implied, it is the total amperage being used on the circuit at one time. If you do a search, others have posted or linked to very detailed explanations of the dangers of surge protected power strips at sea.įurthermore, to answer question, using a 'cruise compliant' power strip has nothing to do with 'not overpowering the circuit'. It is not because of their rated amperage or ' what the power strip is able to handle'. These voltage transformers enable the use of 110v USA electrical products in foreign countries where the voltage ranges from 220 Volt. You never mentioned surge protection, but I think the point is the reason these power strips (boxes) are 'cruise compliant' is solely because they have no surge protection. 220 volt to 110-volt Step-Down converter or transformer reduces the incoming 220v or 240 Volt electricity found in most parts of the world to 110 Volt USA power. If they're at risk, then be sure to use a voltage converter. If you go over said rating, your wire have the potential To(and most likely will) overheat and burn.īut I no where mentioned anything about a surge protector. Spain uses 220-volt electricity, whereas the U.S. I was more referencing what the power strip was able to handle. But I no where mentioned anything about a surge protector. These power strips do not have a circuit breaker in them, and a circuit breaker or fuse is the only thing that will limit the current that flows in a circuit, and it is the amount of current flowing that poses a fire hazard from overheating the wiring.

Surge protectors do not have anything to do with overloading a circuit. These 'cruise compliant' power strips do not have surge protectors in them. As above, this power strip has no control over how much power you draw from the power strip. And, note that the circuit for the 110v outlets in cabins are typically for 2-3 cabins, so even if you plug just one hair dryer into the 'cruise compliant' power strip, and the ladies in the adjacent cabins do as well at the same time, you can trip the breaker as well. You are correct that you need to watch the amp ratings of what you plug into an outlet, but that goes for everywhere, not just on a ship. If you plug all three into this 'cruise compliant' power strip, and fire them all up, you will 'over power' the circuit and trip the breaker. Hair dryers, curlers, and straighteners are all 'cruise approved' appliances. For three -phase equipment, use this formula to find power output: VA Volts × Amps × 1.73. Add up the amps usage number found on all the things your plugging into the power strip and make sure you don't exceed power strips amp rating. For single -phase equipment, use this formula to find power output: VA Volts × Amps. If you want to be sure sure, the power strips will have an amp rating. 500w 220v to 110v voltage transformer, convert 220 volt power source to 110 volt, and also 110 to 220 volt, all-in-one international step up & step down voltage. As long as you're only powering cruise approved appliances.
