We have a post "Plugs & Travel Adapters for your next trip to Europe", maybe you want to read it.

Voltage

Exact voltage

Perfect! This is very good! You will not need any sort of voltage adapter (they are always big, heavy and they can't handle too much energy. i.e. might have problems with hairdryers). You can plug your devices to the electric network grid in Isle of Man without requiring a voltage adapter.

Plugs Type

Same connectors

Ideal situation, all the connectors used in Gibraltar are also used in Isle of Man. You will not need any adapter (but please check voltages and the other sections of this report). Congratulations!!!!

Adapters

Lists of adapters you can use in your travel:

Adapter: generic


Front	Back

This adapter allows you to use plugs type: A, B, C, D, E, F, I, M into outlets type: G.

This is a very cheap adapter without loose terminal and finger protection; it does have earth pass-though (good); but no good grip because of so many different supported plugs. We recommend to use a more expensive option if available.

Adapter: generic


Front	Back

This adapter allows you to use plugs type: A, B, D, G, I, M into outlets type: C, E, F, L.

This adapter has a safety protection so you don't plug only one terminal into the adapter while touching the other with your finger, because it is generic, when you buy it pay attention to this safety mechanism. Overall a good adapter that has the earth connection pass-though (notice the metallic connector on the side.)
