Sockets and electricity in the Dominican Republic

What kind of sockets and voltage will I generally found on my trip to the Dominican Republic?

An important piece of information you have to take into account before you go to the Dominican Republic is to known that the power supplies are the American type, 110-120V/60Hz. If you come from a country which does not have this type of socket, as is the case of Spain or Argentina, you should buy an adaptor to be able to use your electronic devices.

Regarding the electricity, the power failures are part of the life of the island and the only way to endure them is with patience and following the rhythm of the Caribbean life, since they usually last 5 or 6 hours. However, the hotels, public centers and restaurants have, usually, their own emergency generator to avoid depending upon the constant electricity jumps.
