The table below summarises the plug types, voltage and frequency of electrical current in both Malawi and Tuvalu.
| Malawi | Tuvalu | |
|---|---|---|
| Plug Types | G | I |
| Voltage | 230V | 220V |
| Frequency of electrical current | 50Hz | 50Hz |
Malawi uses Plug Type G.
You will need this adaptor:
Socket Type
(Malawi) to Plug Type I
(Tuvalu)
The voltages found in Malawi (230V) and Tuvalu (220V) are not exactly the same, but the difference is tolerable, so you should not need a transformer.
The frequency found in Malawi and Tuvalu is exactly the same (50Hz). Timing devices and appliances that use motors will function as expected under this frequency.
