Peru runs at 220 V, 60 Hz, with Type A, B, C sockets.

Data status: two general references agree.

What you need, coming from…

Two devices that behave oppositely. A charger takes any supply, so only the plug shape matters. A hair dryer is built for one voltage, and the wrong one destroys it.

What the two references say

This site grades a country by comparing two general references rather than merging them. Where they disagree we show both and say so, because a reconciled number with the disagreement hidden is the failure mode this whole dataset is built against.
