Plugs and electricity in Tajikistan

Tajikistan runs at 220 V, 50 Hz, with Type C, F, I sockets.

Data status: references list slightly different sockets.

What you need, coming from…

Two devices that behave oppositely. A charger takes any supply, so only the plug shape matters. A hair dryer is built for one voltage, and the wrong one destroys it.

Earthed plugs in Tajikistan’s sockets

A plug that fits is not always a plug that earths. Into Type C, Type F and Type I sockets, Type E or Type K plugs go in and lose the earth connection, while Type F or Type I earth normally.

Arriving with	Type C socket	Type F socket	Type I socket
Type E	does not fit	earth lost	does not fit
Type F	does not fit	earth kept	does not fit
Type I	does not fit	does not fit	earth kept
Type K	does not fit	earth lost	does not fit

What the two references say

This site grades a country by comparing two general references rather than merging them. Where they disagree we show both and say so, because a reconciled number with the disagreement hidden is the failure mode this whole dataset is built against.
