Plugs and electricity in Uzbekistan

Uzbekistan runs at 220 V, 50 Hz, with Type C, E, F 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 Uzbekistan’s sockets

A plug that fits is not always a plug that earths. Into Type C, Type E and Type F sockets, Type E, Type F or Type K plugs go in and lose the earth connection, and nothing here restores it.

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.
