Afghanistan | Peru | |
---|---|---|
Plug Types | C, D, F | A, B, C |
Voltage | 240V | 220V |
Frequency of electrical current | 50Hz | 60Hz |
In Afghanistan there's more than one plug type in use.
What type of plug does your appliance have?
In Peru there's more than one socket type in use. You may require more than one adaptor.
Socket Type C
(Afghanistan) to Plug Type A
(Peru)
Socket Type C
(Afghanistan) to Plug Type B
(Peru)
Peru also uses Socket Type C, which is used in Afghanistan. If using an appliance that has a Type C Plug in the Type C Sockets of Peru, you will not need an adaptor.
In Peru there's more than one socket type in use. You may require more than one adaptor.

The voltages found in Afghanistan (240V) and Peru (220V) are not exactly the same, but the difference is tolerable, so you should not need a transformer.
The frequency of electrical current found in Afghanistan (50Hz) differs to that found in Peru (60Hz).
Most equipment is not affected by differences in frequencies. Some exceptions are:
