Electricity and sockets
An adapter is required: Fiji uses Type I, which does not accept plugs from the UK.
Sockets at the destination
Fiji runs on 240 V at 50 Hz, with sockets following Type I. 240 V means no voltage converter – only the plug shape matters.
Handy for multi-stop trips: Tonga, Tuvalu, Niue and Australia use the same plug types. Nearby but different: Guam, Palau and the Marshall Islands – an adapter for Fiji will not fit there. In Oceania, 13 of 18 recorded destinations use exactly this combination.
Protective earth
Protective earth is standard in Fiji; your adapter should carry it through.
