Recommended Travel Adaptor for Montserrat
We’ve carried out thorough research, tested adaptors on real trips, and compared price, quality, safety features and charging speed — this is the one that came out on top.
Abroad with no adaptor? You’ll find some for sale at airports and in town. Just bear in mind they’re often overpriced and not the best quality.
Montserrat is often part of a Caribbean trip that also includes Antigua and Barbuda and Saint Kitts and Nevis. It’s a good idea to check plug types for each — they’re not always the same.
Sockets in Montserrat
In Montserrat, you’ll find Type A and B plugs and sockets.
Type A
Type A sockets have two flat parallel pins and no grounding. Unlike Type G, they don’t include an earth pin, which makes them less secure.
Type B
Type B sockets have two flat parallel pins plus a round grounding pin. Unlike Type G, the pins are thinner and there’s no built-in fuse.
Do You Need a Voltage Converter?
Voltage converters are only necessary if there’s a mismatch. In Montserrat the mains supply is more or less the same as in the UK, so you’re fine.
Don’t forget to check the voltage label on your device before use overseas. If it’s stamped ‘100–240 V, 50/60 Hz’, it’ll work in most places without a converter.
Top Travel Essentials to Take With You
Travelling can be stressful enough without the little annoyances. A luggage scale saves you from those eye-watering charges at the airport, a power bank means your phone won’t die mid-journey, and packing cubes keep everything in order. We’ve taken them on trips ourselves, and they really do make a difference.
