From Eritrea to Mozambique
When travelling from Eritrea to Mozambique: Some of your Eritrea plug types fit in Mozambique (C). 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 Mozambique
Mozambique uses 230V/50Hz with Type C, F, M, and N sockets.

The Cahora Bassa hydroelectric dam on the Zambezi is Mozambique’s largest source, much of it exported to South Africa. Coal and gas fill the rest.
Availability
Reliable in Maputo; rural areas variable.
Sockets & hotels
Mix of European Type C/F and Southern African Type M/N. Bring a universal adapter.
Energy mix
Hydro-dominated; major exporter.
Practical tips
- Universal adapter covering C, F, M, and N is safest.
- Voltage is the standard 230V, and modern chargers handle it without issue.
