British Indian Ocean Territory Travel Adapters

Type G • 230 volts • 50 Hz

British Indian Ocean Territory is a United Kingdom overseas territory located in the central Indian Ocean. The territory consists of a group of islands known as the Chagos Archipelago. The largest island, Diego Garcia, hosts a joint United States and United Kingdom military facility and is the only island with a permanent population.

British Indian Ocean Territory uses mains electricity supplied at about 230 volts at 50 Hz. Wall outlets use Type G sockets, the same plug type used in the United Kingdom. Travelers from regions that use different plug types should bring a compatible travel adapter. Visitors should confirm that their electronic devices support 100–240V input or use an appropriate voltage converter if necessary.
