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