Type C
Type C is a compact socket with two round openings and no grounding. You will find it across many parts of Europe, as well as in parts of Asia, South America, and Africa. It is usually used in 220 to 240 volt systems and is common for low power devices.
Recommended one-country adapters
- A compact, country‑specific adapter that converts your home plug to the local socket is often the simplest solution. It is small, lightweight and ideal if you are only visiting one destination. It also tends to sit more securely in the socket than many bulky universal adapters, reducing the chance of loose or interrupted charging.
