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