What electrical current or voltage is used in Mexico? Will my electrical appliances work in Mexico?

Mexico uses 110v – 120v and 60 Hertz so it is the same as in the US. Since I am from Europe, I had to make some changes in how I use my appliances but it was very easy. You just have to buy a transformer and that will convert the voltage from the wall coming into your appliances.

The electrical current for electronics in Mexico is exactly the same to what we have in Canada and the US. All my laptops move back and forth from Canada to the US, and when we bought some electronics from Canada, the experience was exactly the same.
On some of our electronics, we use surge suppressors. If you own a home in Mexico, it would be a good idea to have surge suppressors. In our condo, everything has been pre-arranged for us in the building. That...

On some of our electronics, we use surge suppressors. If you own a home in Mexico, it would be a good idea to have surge suppressors. In our condo, everything has been pre-arranged for us in the building. That means we have our own generator, so our electricity is stable. Outside of our complex, you would need something to protect your electronics from electrical spikes.
