Electrical Plugs

Hey All,

just want to check on what adapter to take with me to Norway and Finland.

I%26#39;m sitting here with 5 adapters, all 2-pin, but slightly diffeent thickness of pin, and distance apart.

I understand that Scandinavia uses the same plugs as Western Europe?

thanks

Andrew

Hi!

Here%26#39;s a really thourough site with pictures of different plugs and where they are used. http://www.kropla.com/electric.htm

The ones%26#39; used in Finland are the tyoes C and F.

Have a really nice trip!

An adapter where the output is of type C will also fit into a socket of type F, so a C type (Western European 2-pin) adapter will suffice for both Finland and Norway (and the rest of continental Europe). F type (grounded) plug will not necessarily fit into a socket of type C.

thanks guys, that%26#39;s a great help.

looking forward to my trip now.

cheers

Andrew
