If you plan on traveling abroad, you can power your Apple products in different countries with the help of the Apple World Travel Adapter Kit. The adapters are designed to work with the following Apple products and power adapters:

  • iPod Power Adapter (with FireWire connector)
  • iPod USB Power Adapter
  • White portable power adapter for iBook or PowerBook (see article 75448 for more information)
  • AirPort Express

Because the devices listed above have auto-sensing and auto-switching power supplies, all you need to do is attach the correct AC plug adapter to the device to have it work correctly in other supported countries.

Here's a list of the six AC plug adapters included with the kit, and the countries in which each adapter can be used.

Three-prong blades United Kingdom
Hong Kong
Singapore
Qatar
Republic of Ireland
Flat angled blades Australia
New Zealand
Flat parallel blades without holes China
Flat parallel blades with holes North America
Japan
Round thick pins Korea
Round thin pins Continental Europe
* Note: The countries and regions listed are just some examples of supported locations for that adapter. Adapters may be used in additional countries.
Even though the country you are visiting may state its electrical power is within the supported range for the device you are using, be sure that the quality of the electrical power is up to specifications. Electrical spikes and brown-outs can damage electrical equipment.

Here's what three different adapters attached to AirPort Express look like:
