Which plug adaptor do I need when travelling from Australia to Malaysia?

Summary

The table below summarises the plug types, voltage and frequency of electrical current in both Australia and Malaysia.

	Australia	Malaysia
Plug Types	I	G, M
Voltage	230V	240V
Frequency of electrical current	50Hz	50Hz

Plug Adaptors

Australia uses Plug Type I.

Your Appliance has Plug Type I

In Malaysia there's more than one socket type in use. You may require more than one adaptor.

Socket Type I
(Australia) to Plug Type G
(Malaysia)

Socket Type I
(Australia) to Plug Type M
(Malaysia)

Considerations

Voltage

The voltages found in Australia (230V) and Malaysia (240V) are not exactly the same, but the difference is tolerable, so you should not need a transformer.

Good to know

Frequency of Electrical Current

The frequency found in Australia and Malaysia is exactly the same (50Hz). Timing devices and appliances that use motors will function as expected under this frequency.
