From Montserrat to Gibraltar

Some plugs match

When travelling from Montserrat to Gibraltar: Some of your Montserrat plug types fit in Gibraltar (G). Bring a compact adapter for the others. Voltage matches at 230V, so a basic plug adapter is enough for most devices. Frequency differs (60Hz → 50Hz). Modern phone and laptop chargers are usually fine, but some clocks, motors, and appliances may behave incorrectly.
