220 V · 50 Hz on Type M.

One of the few places where the heavy round-pin Type M is the only listed standard, at 220 V and 50 Hz. Adapters made for South Africa's large round-pin sockets are exactly what you need, and they are easiest to buy before arriving rather than on the ground.

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.

Coming here from somewhere else?

Pack an adapter — Lesotho runs 220 V 50 Hz on Type M — and your 120 V appliances need to be dual-voltage or transformed, adapter or not.
