Moving from USA to Spain with my APC Smart-UPS C 1500

[ChaseEverettSound]

Hello everyone. 

I have a APC Smart-UPS C 1500 in my home studio which all of my (American) studio equipment is plugged in to. Considering the standard outlet in the USA is 120 volts, and its 220 volts in Spain, is there a step-down transformer or adapter I can use so that I can plug my UPS into a European outlet?

If not, is it possible for me to trade in my UPS for one that has a European power cable?

Big thanks in advance!

Upon settling in Spain you may consider using the APC Trade Up program:

Great suggestion! I would still need a UPS with a European plug, and with American outlets, and one that can also act as a step-down transformer. I've contacted APC to ask about this specific thing, but haven't heard back yet.

The vast majority of electronics and power supplies are wide voltage (120~240 VAC) with dual 50/60 Hz frequency.

You’ll need to review all your hardware to see what is vs not. You will obviously need an C / F adapter to convert any of the North American style plugs (NEMA 5-15P) two pole and ground (NEMA 1-15P) two pole no ground. 

As it relates to a step down transformer ensure it’s cUL / CE certified! ☝️
