The table below summarises the plug types, voltage and frequency of electrical current in both Philippines and Cameroon.
Philippines | Cameroon | |
---|---|---|
Plug Types | A, B, C | C, E |
Voltage | 220V | 220V |
Frequency of electrical current | 60Hz | 50Hz |
In Philippines there's more than one plug type in use.
What type of plug does your appliance have?
In Cameroon there's more than one socket type in use. You may require more than one adaptor.
Socket Type A
(Philippines) to Plug Type C
(Cameroon)
Socket Type A
(Philippines) to Plug Type E
(Cameroon)
In Cameroon there's more than one socket type in use. You may require more than one adaptor.
Socket Type B
(Philippines) to Plug Type C
(Cameroon)
Socket Type B
(Philippines) to Plug Type E
(Cameroon)
In Cameroon there's more than one socket type in use.
You will need this adaptor:
Socket Type B
(Philippines) to Plug Type E
(Cameroon)
Cameroon also uses Socket Type C, which is used in Philippines. If using an appliance that has a Type C Plug in the Type C Sockets of Cameroon, you will not need an adaptor.
The frequency of electrical current found in Philippines (60Hz) differs to that found in Cameroon (50Hz).
Most equipment is not affected by differences in frequencies. Some exceptions are:
The voltage found in Philippines and Cameroon is exactly the same (220V). You will not need a transformer.
