Plugs Type

Same connectors

Ideal situation, all the connectors used in Haiti are also used in Jamaica. Congratulations!!!

Adapters

You are lucky, don't need adapter.

No equal hertz

This is not a big issue. Unless you are using an electric alarm clock and you have to wake up early!. Explanation: Some alarm clocks (not the battery powered ones, the ones that you have to plug to the wall outlet) uses the frequency of electricity to measure time. So, time shifts could be experimented. For more information about alarm clocks hertz shift click here. Apart this issue, almost every home electronic device works perfectly with different hertz.
