United Kingdom (UK) Travel Adapters
The United Kingdom is a country in northwestern Europe consisting of England, Scotland, Wales, and Northern Ireland. The capital city is London. Known for its long history and global influence, the United Kingdom features historic cities, rolling countryside, and cultural landmarks including medieval castles, universities, and world-famous museums.
The United Kingdom uses mains electricity supplied at about 230 volts at 50 Hz. Travelers to the UK may encounter Type G outlets, British shaver sockets, or legacy Type D plugs. Travelers from regions that use different plug types should bring a compatible or universal travel adapter. Visitors should confirm that their electronic devices support 100-240V input or use an appropriate voltage converter if necessary.
