I live in the US, where we have 120V 60 cycle electrical power. What
is used in Australia and NZ? Is it 240V 50, as in most of Europe, or
something else? My laptop can use either, and I have a plug converter
for Australia, but do I also need a transformer?

Also will my US-to-Australia plug connector work in NZ, or do I need a
different one there?

Thanks.
