Adapter required

Yes — coming from Philippines, you will need a travel adapter for Grenada. Philippines uses Type A/Type B/Type C plugs, and Grenada uses Type G, so the pin shapes will not fit any wall socket. The mains frequency is also different (60 Hz vs 50 Hz). This rarely matters for electronics but can affect motor-driven devices like clocks and shavers.
