Plug shape, voltage, frequency — the four things that decide whether your gear works on this route.
The story behind the route.
Why this specific origin → destination pair has the quirks it does — local context the data alone won't show.
Flying from Canada to United States of America? The electrical infrastructure you're used to won't follow you there. Good news on the plug front: both countries share Type A/B compatibility, so your plugs will physically fit. Voltage is identical at 120V, which simplifies things considerably. wikimedia.org/wiki/Special:FilePath/Las%20Vegas%20%28Nevada%2C%20USA%29%2C%20The%20Strip%20--%202012%20--%206232.jpg. Bottom line: pack the right gear or prepare for inconvenience.
