From El Salvador to Uganda

No plugs match

When travelling from El Salvador to Uganda: None of your El Salvador plug types fit in Uganda. You will need a travel adapter. Voltage is different (120V → 240V). Check your charger label; if it doesn’t list 240V 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.
