The table below summarises the plug types, voltage and frequency of electrical current in both Namibia and Malawi.
| Namibia | Malawi | |
|---|---|---|
| Plug Types | D, M | G |
| Voltage | 220V | 230V |
| Frequency of electrical current | 50Hz | 50Hz |
In Namibia there's more than one plug type in use.

The voltages found in Namibia (220V) and Malawi (230V) are not exactly the same, but the difference is tolerable, so you should not need a transformer.
The frequency found in Namibia and Malawi is exactly the same (50Hz). Timing devices and appliances that use motors will function as expected under this frequency.
