230V/50Hz like in most of Europe? At least that's what my old World

still 220V but EU harmonization should have made it nominally 230V by
now).

I don't know about the connector, though. At least some sources say
they use the widely-used (in Europe) Schuko connector, see 
http://kropla.com/electric2.htm  for example.
