Electricity

The power system in New Zealand is 240 volts, 50 cycles.

 

In New Zealand, you are allowed to do minor electrical repair work, such as changing fuses, replacing light bulbs, rewiring plugs and installing new oven elements. However, for safety and insurance reasons, registered electricians are required to do any other electrical work. Look in the Yellow Pages, under 'Electricians'.
