From French Polynesia to Singapore
When travelling from French Polynesia to Singapore: None of your French Polynesia plug types fit in Singapore. You will need a travel adapter. Voltage matches at 230V, so a basic plug adapter is enough for most devices. Frequency differs (60Hz → 50Hz). Modern phone and laptop chargers are usually fine, but some clocks, motors, and appliances may behave incorrectly.

About electricity in Singapore
Singapore runs on 230V/50Hz with Type G, the British three-rectangular-pin socket.
Grid & history
Singapore generates over 95% of its electricity from natural gas. Imported renewable power from Malaysia, Laos, and (planned) Australia is growing under regional ASEAN grid initiatives.
Availability
The Singaporean grid is among the most reliable in the world.
Sockets & hotels
Type G is universal, and UK plugs fit perfectly. Many hotels have bedside universal sockets that also accept European and US plugs.
Energy mix
Natural gas dominates; rooftop solar growing.
Practical tips
- A Type G adapter is essential for visitors from anywhere except the UK, Ireland, and Hong Kong.
- Bedside universal sockets are common in mid-range and higher hotels.
