From Brazil to South Sudan
When travelling from Brazil to South Sudan: Some of your Brazil plug types fit in South Sudan (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 South Sudan
South Sudan runs on 230V/50Hz with Type C, D, and G sockets.
Grid & history
South Sudan has one of the lowest electrification rates in the world, most of the population has no grid access. Diesel generators and emerging solar mini-grids serve those that do.
Availability
Mostly off-grid. Juba and a few towns have intermittent grid supply.
Sockets & hotels
Mix of Type C, D, and G.
Energy mix
Mostly off-grid; mini-grid solar growing.
Practical tips
- A universal adapter is essential because outlet types vary by building.
- A high-capacity power bank is essential because outages are routine.
- Voltage on generators can be unstable. Use a surge protector.
