The table below summarises the plug types, voltage and frequency of electrical current in both Samoa and Afghanistan.
| Samoa | Afghanistan | |
|---|---|---|
| Plug Types | I | C, D, F |
| Voltage | 230V | 240V |
| Frequency of electrical current | 50Hz | 50Hz |
Samoa uses Plug Type I.
In Afghanistan there's more than one socket type in use. You may require more than one adaptor.

The voltages found in Samoa (230V) and Afghanistan (240V) are not exactly the same, but the difference is tolerable, so you should not need a transformer.
The frequency found in Samoa and Afghanistan is exactly the same (50Hz). Timing devices and appliances that use motors will function as expected under this frequency.
