    For the most part, yes.

     

    Your Mac will run on 100-240 Volts and 50-60 Hz so you will not need a voltage converter. But, you will need an AC adapter to fit the UK wall plug.

     

    The UK does use channels 1-13 for Wi-Fi and Canada 1-11, so if you try to connect to a network that is using Channel 12 or 13, you will not be successful.
