The table below summarises the plug types, voltage and frequency of electrical current in both Afghanistan and South Africa.
| Afghanistan | South Africa | |
|---|---|---|
| Plug Types | C, D, F | M |
| Voltage | 240V | 220V, 230V |
| Frequency of electrical current | 50Hz | 50Hz |
In Afghanistan there's more than one plug type in use.
What type of plug does your appliance have?
You will need this adaptor:
Socket Type C
(Afghanistan) to Plug Type M
(South Africa)
You will need this adaptor:
Socket Type D
(Afghanistan) to Plug Type M
(South Africa)
You will need this adaptor:
Socket Type F
(Afghanistan) to Plug Type M
(South Africa)
The voltages found in Afghanistan (240V) and South Africa (220V and 230V) are not exactly the same, but the difference is tolerable, so you should not need a transformer.
The frequency found in Afghanistan and South Africa is exactly the same (50Hz). Timing devices and appliances that use motors will function as expected under this frequency.
