The table below summarises the plug types, voltage and frequency of electrical current in both Nicaragua and Virgin Islands.
| Nicaragua | Virgin Islands | |
|---|---|---|
| Plug Types | A | A, B |
| Voltage | 120V | 110V |
| Frequency of electrical current | 60Hz | 60Hz |
Nicaragua uses Plug Type A.
In Virgin Islands there's more than one socket type in use.
You will need this adaptor:
Socket Type
(Nicaragua) to Plug Type B
(Virgin Islands)
Virgin Islands also uses Socket Type A, which is used in Nicaragua. If using an appliance that has a Type A Plug in the Type A Sockets of Virgin Islands, you will not need an adaptor.
The voltages found in Nicaragua (120V) and Virgin Islands (110V) are not exactly the same, but the difference is tolerable, so you should not need a transformer.
The frequency found in Nicaragua and Virgin Islands is exactly the same (60Hz). Timing devices and appliances that use motors will function as expected under this frequency.
