The table below summarises the plug types, voltage and frequency of electrical current in both Angola and Burkina Faso.
| Angola | Burkina Faso | |
|---|---|---|
| Plug Types | C | C, E |
| Voltage | 220V | 220V |
| Frequency of electrical current | 50Hz | 50Hz |
Angola uses Plug Type C.
In Burkina Faso there's more than one socket type in use.
You will need this adaptor:
Socket Type C
(Angola) to Plug Type E
(Burkina Faso)
Burkina Faso also uses Socket Type C, which is used in Angola. If using an appliance that has a Type C Plug in the Type C Sockets of Burkina Faso, you will not need an adaptor.
The voltage found in Angola and Burkina Faso is exactly the same (220V). You will not need a transformer.
The frequency found in Angola and Burkina Faso is exactly the same (50Hz). Timing devices and appliances that use motors will function as expected under this frequency.
