The table below summarises the plug types, voltage and frequency of electrical current in both Eritrea and Central African Republic.
| Eritrea | Central African Republic | |
|---|---|---|
| Plug Types | C | C, E |
| Voltage | 230V | 220V |
| Frequency of electrical current | 50Hz | 50Hz |
Eritrea uses Plug Type C.
In Central African Republic there's more than one socket type in use.
You will need this adaptor:
Socket Type
(Eritrea) to Plug Type E
(Central African Republic)
Central African Republic also uses Socket Type C, which is used in Eritrea. If using an appliance that has a Type C Plug in the Type C Sockets of Central African Republic, you will not need an adaptor.
The voltages found in Eritrea (230V) and Central African Republic (220V) are not exactly the same, but the difference is tolerable, so you should not need a transformer.
The frequency found in Eritrea and Central African Republic is exactly the same (50Hz). Timing devices and appliances that use motors will function as expected under this frequency.
