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