Isle of Man.

240 V · 50 Hz on Type G, Type C.

Wired like the neighbouring UK: 240 V 50 Hz through fused three-pin Type G sockets, with Type C noted by the IEC as a secondary presence. British and Irish plugs work unchanged; everyone else should carry a Type G adapter, and 120 V-only appliances need a dual-voltage rating.

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.
