Please could you inform me whether the electrical voltage in general use in China is 220/240V or 110/120V?

Kind Regards

Dear Sarah Gauci Carlton:

China uses 220 volt power supply for standard domestic and business purposes. Hotels generally provide wall sockets in every bathroom for razors and hair dryers, accommodating both “straight two-pin plugs,” and “triangular 3-pins plugs.”

We hope this answers your question.

Best Regards
