Falkland Islands.

240 V · 50 Hz on Type G.

Type GBritish 13 A plug13 A · earthed

Entirely British at the wall: 240 V 50 Hz through fused three-pin Type G sockets, exactly as in the UK. Visitors from Britain plug straight in; everyone else needs a Type G adapter, and North American 120 V-only appliances need a converter or a dual-voltage rating to cope with the doubled voltage.

The voltage window

A nominal 240 V supply may legitimately sit anywhere between 216 and 264 V (±10%). Dual-voltage gear (marked 100–240 V) shrugs at all of it.
