From China to Somalia
When travelling from China to Somalia: None of your China plug types fit in Somalia. You will need a travel adapter. Voltage matches at 230V, so a basic plug adapter is enough for most devices. Frequency is the same at 50Hz.

There is no unified national grid. Private operators run city- and neighbourhood-level grids on diesel and growing solar.
Availability
Highly variable. Private generators are normal.

Mix of Type C and Type G.
Energy mix
Privately-operated; solar rapidly expanding.
Practical tips
- A universal adapter covering C and G is safest.
- A high-capacity power bank is essential because outages are routine.
