Travel adapter from Peru to El Salvador
No Adapter Needed
You will not need a plug adapter — Peru and El Salvador share at least one common plug shape (Type A, Type B). Voltages differ (230 V at home vs 120 V abroad), so check the label on each device. Most modern dual-voltage chargers handle the swing without a converter, but heating appliances usually do not.
