Electricity
Myanmar uses 230V, 50Hz AC. Blackouts are more the rule than the exception especially from December to June every year. This is the time that people use electricity on quota basis. However, all international tourist class hotels have backup generators to provide electricity when power is cut. In simpler hotels in remote and off the beaten track areas as well as at some hotels at the beaches, especially in NgweSaung, generators do often not run 24h.
It is recommended that you bring an international electrical adaptor to recharge your camera batteries and other devices. The power plugs and sockets used in Myanmar are mostly two-pin (rounded) and three-pin British style (both rounded and flat) but you also find other types.
