From Myanmar to Zambia
When travelling from Myanmar to Zambia: Some of your Myanmar plug types fit in Zambia (G). Bring a compact adapter for the others. Voltage matches at 230V, so a basic plug adapter is enough for most devices. Frequency is the same at 50Hz.

About electricity in Zambia
Zambia uses 230V/50Hz with Type G sockets.
Grid & history
Zambia is hydropower-dominated (Kariba shared with Zimbabwe, plus the Itezhi-Tezhi and Kafue Gorge plants). Drought reduces supply and forces load-shedding.
Availability
Reliable in Lusaka. Load-shedding is common during dry seasons.
Sockets & hotels
Type G is standard.
Energy mix
Hydropower-dominated.
Practical tips
- A Type G adapter is essential for any non-UK plug.
- Bring a power bank during dry-season load-shedding.
