What to expect in Negril
Negril uses Type A and B sockets at 110 V / 50 Hz — American plugs on a 50 Hz grid. Check anything with a mains motor.
Power in Jamaica comes mainly from oil, renewables. Grid reliability is described as good.
Good to know: British-built grid that kept 50 Hz while running 110 V.
What to pack for Negril
- A travel adapter with Type A and Type B on the socket side.
- A step-up transformer only if you are bringing 230 V appliances from Europe or Asia.
- A device label check: anything marked 100–240 V needs the adapter, nothing else.
