🇿🇦 South Africa to 🇹🇻 TuvaluAdapter required. Your plugs are about to go on an adventure.
Tuvalu 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 I (Australian) adapter
You need a plug adapter. Plugs from South Africa (Type C, D, M and N) don't fit the Type I sockets in Tuvalu. A Type I (Australian) 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.
