Voltage

No homogeneous electric network

Different voltages are used within the same country. So perhaps in one region one voltage is used, and in another region of the same country, another voltage is used. You will have to take extreme care about this. Before plugin any electric device, you should check your device voltage and you must ask at local place the voltage used in the electric network. If you move to different city, you should ask again about this. In some countries voltages varies in regions, even, in nearby cities. Plugin electric devices to different voltage network could injury an accident. In futher reading section of this page you have usefull links for undertanding the hazards involved.
