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