* Some countries use different voltage and frequency for their power.
* The counties that got power more recently tend to use better, safer systems.
* The countries with older systems can’t upgrade because the cost of replacing all the outlets and every electrical device would be impossible.
* Also the old systems are still safe enough to use.
