Asked by Leandre from South Africa | Jun. 04, 2014 06:04
About:Power Plugs / Sockets in China

Will my South African plugs work in Hong Kong?

I am South African and my 2 point plugs work just fine in South Korea and the voltage is the same (I live and work here now). Will I be able to use them in Hong Kong as well? Is there a voltage difference?

The voltage is the same. It's 220V. However, the frequency is 60Hz in South Korea and 50Hz in HK. So I suggest you buy a step-down transformer. The plug can't be used in HK. The plugs in South Korea have two round pins. However, those used in HK have 3 flat blades. You need an adaptor.
