The frequency of electric current is 50 Hertz in Eastern Japan (including Tokyo, Yokohama, Tohoku, Hokkaido) and 60 Hertz in Western Japan (including Nagoya, Osaka, Kyoto, Hiroshima, Shikoku, Kyushu); however, most equipment is not affected by this frequency difference.
The difference in voltage between Japan and North America is only about 10 volts, so North American products should be usable in Japan as is. However, appliances made for North America that produce heat, such as heaters, irons, hairdryers, etc. will not get as hot in Japan as they do in North America.
