The table below summarises the plug types, voltage and frequency of electrical current in both Algeria and Pakistan.
Algeria | Pakistan | |
---|---|---|
Plug Types | C, F | C, D |
Voltage | 230V | 220V |
Frequency of electrical current | 50Hz | 60Hz |
In Algeria there's more than one plug type in use.
What type of plug does your appliance have?
In Pakistan there's more than one socket type in use.
You will need this adaptor:
Socket Type C
(Algeria) to Plug Type D
(Pakistan)
Pakistan also uses Socket Type C, which is used in Algeria. If using an appliance that has a Type C Plug in the Type C Sockets of Pakistan, you will not need an adaptor.
In Pakistan there's more than one socket type in use. You may require more than one adaptor.
Socket Type F
(Algeria) to Plug Type C
(Pakistan)
Socket Type F
(Algeria) to Plug Type D
(Pakistan)
The voltages found in Algeria (230V) and Pakistan (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 Algeria (50Hz) differs to that found in Pakistan (60Hz).
Most equipment is not affected by differences in frequencies. Some exceptions are:
