Yemen.

240 V · 50 Hz on Type D, Type G, Type M.

Yemen runs 240 V at 50 Hz with British-heritage sockets: round-pin Type D, rectangular Type G, and the large Type M also on record. A Type G adapter plus a D option covers most situations. Grid power is badly disrupted in much of the country, so generators and solar are widespread.

The voltage window

A nominal 240 V supply may legitimately sit anywhere between 216 and 264 V (±10%). Dual-voltage gear (marked 100–240 V) shrugs at all of it.
