From Brazil to Mauritius
When travelling from Brazil to Mauritius: Some of your Brazil plug types fit in Mauritius (C). Bring a compact adapter for the others. Voltage is different (127V / 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 Mauritius
Mauritius uses 230V/50Hz with Type C, E, and G sockets. A French-and-British colonial mix.
Grid & history
Heavy fuel oil and coal dominate Mauritian generation; solar and bagasse (sugarcane waste) are the growing renewables.
Availability
Reliable nationwide.
Sockets & hotels
Most modern outlets accept G plugs; some buildings still have C/E. Bring a universal adapter.
Energy mix
Bagasse is a significant biomass source.
Practical tips
- Universal adapter covering C/E/G is safest.
- Voltage is the standard 230V, and modern chargers handle it without issue.
