Main Voltage in Guyana

Do I Need a Voltage Converter in Guyana?

Guyana runs on a main voltage of 240 volts at a frequency of 60 Hz. This is effectively the same as India's 230V/50Hz. You can plug any Indian device into a Guyana socket without a voltage converter, as long as the plug shape fits.

Will my Indian charger work in Guyana?

Yes, but it depends on which socket your hotel has. Guyana uses Type A, B, D and G sockets at 240V/60Hz. Your Indian phone and laptop chargers are dual-voltage (the label reads 100–240V), so they handle Guyana voltage without any issue. The only question is plug shape — your Indian plug fits Type D sockets directly, but will not fit Type A, B and G sockets without an adapter. You do not need a voltage converter — Guyana's 240V is the same as India's 230V.
