Although the plug is polarised, CEE7 does not define the placement of the live and neutral and there is no universally observed standard. This adapter allows you to use plugs type: A, B, C, D, E, F, G, H, I, J, K, L, M, N into outlets type: B. Adapter: generic The actual rating of non-rewirable plugs is marked according to the fuse fitted by the cord set manufacturer, the fuse rating being determined by the rating of the flexible cable.

This adapter is extremely generic without loose terminal and finger protection, it does have earth pass-though which is a good thing; but it will not have a good grip because it support so many different plug types in only three generic slots; we don't recommend this adapter unless no better alternative can be found. i.e. a more expensive one. Adapter: generic It is likely you will only find plugs-type "G" in the UK. Plugs type "D" and "M" are considered "old" and not common. They are are still used nowadays to differentiate low-power lighting circuits. So please don't try to use an adapter on them for high-power equipments like hair-dryer or even battery chargers.

The country is also home to several famous ski resorts such as Zermatt, St. Moritz, and Verbier. During the summer, Switzerland’s lakes and mountains offer opportunities for swimming, boating, and fishing. Perfect! This is very good! You will not need any sort of voltage adapter (they are always big, heavy and they can't handle too much energy. i.e. might have problems with hairdryers). You can plug your devices to the electric network grid in France without requiring a voltage adapter. Plugs Type Different plug systems a lot of power such as a hair dryer, hair straightener or curling iron, which can be dangerous to use with these devices. This plug has three rectangular pins forming an isosceles triangle. The BS1363 plug has a fuse rated to protect its flexible cord from overload and consequent fire risk. Modern appliances may only be sold with a fuse of the appropriate size pre-installed. Plugues e Tomadas". Archived from the original on 5 March 2016 .

a b The letter system first appeared in such guides in 1967 ( Electric Current Abroad. United States Department of Commerce, 1967. Retrieved on 14 December 2013.) which designated types A 2-pin US, B (BS 546), and C (BS 1363). The 1984 edition ( Electric Current Abroad. United States Department of Commerce, 1984. Retrieved on 14 December 2013.) uses the letters A to G in the same manner as they are used today, and the last revision of the print series was in 1998 ( "Electric Current Abroad" (PDF). US Department of Commerce, International Trade Administration (retrieved 9 October 2015). 2002. ). The International Trade Administration of the US Department of Commerce now publishes a web version: Electric Current Worldwide, which differs slightly from the IEC list and from Wikipedia's list at Mains electricity by country. High-power devices don't usually handle different voltages due to the high-currents involved i.e. anything that its main purpose involves generating heat (or cold) like hair driers, baby bottle warmers, kettles, etc. On the contrary, modern low-power devices are likely to auto-detect and auto-adapt to different voltages i.e. usb chargers, laptop chargers, etc.

Finally, by the way ...

you may need a voltage converter if your hair dryer, hair straightener or curling iron is not compatible with this. In Italy, the system was never definitively abandoned. Though very rarely seen today, it is still marked as available in BTicino’s catalogue, [66] (except for the three-phase version, which stopped being produced in July 2011).

Harvey Hubbell patented a parallel blade plug in 1913, where the blades were equal width ( U.S. Patent 1,064,833). In 1916 Hubbell received a patent for a polarised version where one blade was both longer and wider than the other ( U.S. Patent 1,180,648), in the polarised version of NEMA1-15, introduced in the 1950s, both blades are the same length, only the width varies.Plugs and power cords have a rated voltage and current assigned to them by the manufacturer. Using a plug or power cord that is inappropriate for the load may be a safety hazard. For example, high-current equipment can cause a fire when plugged into an extension cord with a current rating lower than necessary. Sometimes the cords used to plug in dual voltage 120V / 240V equipment are rated only for 125V, so care must be taken by travellers to use only cords with an appropriate voltage rating. Ungrounded NEMA-1 outlets are not permitted in new construction in the United States and Canada, but can still be found in older buildings. The type 11 plug is unearthed, with two 4mm diameter round pins spaced 19mm apart. The type12 plug adds a central 4mm diameter round earth pin, offset by 5mm. Perfect! This is very good!
