Uganda
240V
United Kingdom
230V
Yes! Your Type G plugs from Uganda will fit directly into United Kingdom's sockets. No adapter needed.
The voltage in United Kingdom is 230V. This is lower than Uganda's 240V. Your devices may work at reduced power.
No, you don't need a voltage converter. The voltage difference (240V to 230V) is safe for most modern devices, especially laptops, phones, and chargers which typically support 100-240V dual voltage.
United Kingdom uses Type G sockets. You will see these socket types in hotels, airports, and public places throughout the country.
Yes, most modern electronics (iPhones, laptops, tablets, cameras) are dual-voltage (110V-240V), so they will work in United Kingdom. Since United Kingdom uses 230V (within the 100-240V range), your device will work fine. No plug adapter is needed.
You can buy a Type G travel adapter online (Amazon, eBay) or at the airport. Look for adapters specifically designed for United Kingdom or universal adapters that include Type G. Check our Amazon link above for the best options.
If your plugs fit, you're good to go! However, if the voltage is different and your device isn't dual-voltage, you could damage your device. Always check your device label.
