Bangladesh.

220 V · 50 Hz on Type C, Type D, Type G, Type K.

A mixed socket landscape: round-pin Type C and D fittings are the most common, with British Type G in newer buildings and the Danish-style Type K also recorded by the IEC. The supply is 220 V at 50 Hz, so European plugs and voltages travel well; a small multi-adapter covers the local variety.

The voltage window

A nominal 220 V supply may legitimately sit anywhere between 198 and 242 V (±10%). Dual-voltage gear (marked 100–240 V) shrugs at all of it.
