Can fit different types of plugs.


The wall socket.

These are the usable plugs.

Type A - Mostly used in the US, Canada, Mexico, Central America, China and Japan. No other plug types will fit in a type A outlet.

Type B - Similar to type A, but with an extra pin for grounding. Mainly used in the US, Canada, Mexico, Central America and Japan. Plugs of type A will also fit into a type B socket.

Type C - The standard European plug. Commonly used in Europe, South-America and Asia, but also in quite a few other countries. Plugs of type E and F will also fit in a type C outlet.

Type O - Used exclusively in Thailand. Plugs of type C will also fit into a type O socket, and there is unsafe compatibility with type E and F plugs.

Type G also considered the safest type of plug, but also the most bulky.

Type G also considered the safest type of plug, but also the most bulky.

yes, safest
but from engineering perspective, its's an overkill

 

[JonWeak]

I always forget which socket they use. Heng I bring the universal one

 

[Mancunian2]

always bring adapter

last time phone chargers only 5-10 watt, use cheap $1-2 adapter generally no problem

now phone charges can be up to 100 watts, those cheapo adapters can be a fire hazard
