Guadeloupe.

230 V · 50 Hz on Type C, Type E, Type D.

French overseas department, French sockets: 230 V 50 Hz on Type C and earthed Type E, with scattered old Type D outlets. Anything that plugs in on the French mainland plugs in here. UK and North American visitors need an adapter, and the latter should confirm their devices accept 230 V.

The voltage window

A nominal 230 V supply may legitimately sit anywhere between 207 and 253 V (±10%). Dual-voltage gear (marked 100–240 V) shrugs at all of it.
