El Salvador to Solomon Islands: Complete Plug & Adapter Guide (2026) Adapter Needed
Getting ready for your journey from El Salvador to Solomon Islands? Electrical compatibility is easy to overlook, but bringing the wrong plug or forgetting an adapter can leave you scrambling at your hotel. Here's what you need to know.
El Salvador uses Type A and B plugs, while Solomon Islands uses Type G and I. Since there is no overlap, you will need a travel adapter to plug in your devices. Make sure to pick one up before your trip or at the airport.
Be aware that El Salvador runs on 120V at 60Hz, while Solomon Islands uses 230V at 50Hz. This voltage difference matters for appliances like hair dryers, curling irons, and electric shavers that aren't dual-voltage. Check the label on your devices. If it says "100-240V," you're fine. Otherwise, you'll need a voltage converter.
Don't forget that Solomon Islands hotel rooms sometimes have a universal shaver socket in the bathroom, but these low-wattage outlets aren't suitable for high-draw devices. For reliable charging, use the standard wall outlets with a proper adapter.
