From Antigua and Barbuda to Pakistan
When travelling from Antigua and Barbuda to Pakistan: None of your Antigua and Barbuda plug types fit in Pakistan. You will need a travel adapter. Voltage is different (110V / 220V → 230V). Check your charger label; if it doesn’t list 230V you’ll also need a voltage converter. Frequency differs (60Hz → 50Hz). Modern phone and laptop chargers are usually fine, but some clocks, motors, and appliances may behave incorrectly.

About electricity in Pakistan
Pakistan runs on 230V/50Hz with Type C and D sockets.
Grid & history
Pakistan’s grid runs on a mix of natural gas, hydropower (Tarbela, Mangla), and growing solar. Chronic capacity vs demand mismatch and circular debt cause scheduled load-shedding in many areas.
Availability
Reliable in major cities’ central districts; load-shedding (scheduled outages) is routine elsewhere. Hotels usually have generator or UPS backup.
Sockets & hotels
Type D is the older 5A round-pin; Type C Europlugs fit Type D sockets ungrounded.

Practical tips
- A universal adapter covering D and C is safest.
- Bring a power bank for load-shedding.
- Voltage is the standard 230V, and modern chargers handle it without issue.
