πŸ‡ΏπŸ‡¦ South Africa to πŸ‡­πŸ‡° Hong KongNope, your plugs won't fit. But an adapter will.

Hong Kong uses 220 V and South Africa uses 230 V, but similar nominal voltages do not guarantee compatibility. Check that your device's input rating covers the destination supply.

What to pack

Plugbert recommends

Type G (UK 3-pin) adapter

You need a plug adapter. Plugs from South Africa (Type C, D, M and N) don't fit the Type G sockets in Hong Kong. A Type G (UK 3-pin) adapter fits the listed socket families there. Socket variants can differ; check the actual outlet and adapter rating.

Tip: a "universal" travel adapter may be useful for several destinations. Check its wall-side plugs, grounding and power limits against your trip.
