Uzbekistan Travel Adapter Kit | Going In Style

Uzbekistan uses the same type of adapter plugs as the country of Russia.  Uzbekistan is located in the central part of Asia bordering Kazakhstan.   The Deluxe Uzbekistan Adapter Plug Kit comes with a total of three adapter plugs and the Going In Style Deluxe Kit ships Priority Mail with tracking.  The Deluxe Adapter Kit will include both grounded and non-grounded adapters for Uzbekistan.

The Standard Uzbekistan Adapter Kit comes with two grounded adapter plugs.  The Basic Uzbekistan Adapter Plug Kit comes with one non grounded adapter. 

Adapter plugs allow electrical connections up to 240 volts. An adapter plug does NOT change the current or voltage (this requires a converter) unless your appliance is dual voltage. Check to make sure your hair dryer, curling iron, electric razor and other appliances are dual voltage before you leave on your trip.  Non-grounded adapters may NOT be used with appliances that have grounded plugs; for these you will need a grounded adapter.

Many of our customers find it handy to have multiple adaptors while traveling - either to run several appliances simultaneously or simply as a backup. If you think you will need additional adapters for your trip, you can also purchase individual adapters.

Grounded Adapter Plugs

If you are traveling with a grounded United States dual/multi-voltage appliance or using a grounded Transformer you will need to use a grounded adaptor plug. A grounded United States plug has two flat blades and one round pin.

Non-Grounded Adapter Plugs

Going In Style offers non-grounded adapter plugs for use with your voltage converter, transformer, or dual/multi voltage appliance. A non-grounded United States plug has two flat blades.

Computers and Apple Products

If you are traveling overseas with a Toshiba, HP, Lenovo, Asus, laptop or Apple device such as an iPad, chances are you won’t need a voltage converter. Most laptops are multi-voltage and will operate on voltages ranging from 100 to 240 volts. However, computers do need to make safe connections to foreign power systems and a surge protector is recommended and you will still need an adapter to use your plug.

Be sure to check each individual appliance to see if it is dual voltage.  You can watch Going In Style's video on how to check to see if your appliance is dual voltage.

Converter- Changing Current Voltage

Going in Style adapters allow electrical connections up to 240 volts. Adapter plugs DO NOT convert voltage and only change the configuration of the pins. When voltage conversion is needed, use an electricity converter. An electricity converter changes the voltage input into your appliance. The United States electrical appliances operate on a lower current of 110-120 volts AC (Alternating Current). Most of the world operates on 220-240 volts AC. Therefore converter units enable your electronic and non-electronic appliances to run on foreign electricity (220-240 volts) to match the voltage requirements of your 110-120 volt device. Failure to run your appliance with a converter could damage your appliance.

About Uzbekistan

Geography

The Uzbekistan is located Central Asia, north of Turkmenistan, south of Kazakhstan. The area is slightly larger than California. The climate is mostly midlatitude desert, long, hot summers, mild winters; semiarid grassland in east.

Currency

Currency in Uzbekistan is the Uzbek Sum (UZS). Credit cards are accepted at major establishments. Foreign currency can be exchanged at banks and some hotels.

Staying Connected

Uzbekistan has a telephone system with digital exchanges in large cities but still antiquated and inadequate in rural areas. When travelling to Uzbekistan you can take an international or unlocked cell phone with a prepaid Uzbekistan SIM card or purchase a phone when you arrive. You can also call your mobile provider to set up an international calling plan. You will need an adapter to charge your phone if you decide to bring your own phone. Most cell phone battery rechargers should be multi-voltage, therefore will not require a converter. If the charger says 100-240 volts, 50-60 cycles then your charger in multi-voltage.

Uzbekistan has 56,334 internet hosts and 4.689 million internet users. Internet is available at internet cafes. When traveling with your laptop or iPad you will need an adapter to charge your device.
