Top 3 Customer Questions & Concerns 🙋♂️
⚡ Will this fit in a standard slim Italian or Swiss socket? This "Thick" version is designed for the 4.8mm holes found in German/French style sockets. Some older or slimmer Italian sockets use 4.0mm holes; if your destination uses the slim 2-pin style, you may need a standard Type C adapter instead.
🛡️ Does this adapter ground my 3-pin appliance? No. While this adapter allows you to plug in a 3-pin device, it converts the connection to a 2-pin output. For devices requiring a safety earth/ground, always ensure the appliance is double-insulated or use a grounded travel converter.
🔌 Can I use this for my high-power hair straightener? This adapter is rated for 10A. Most travel hair straighteners and electronics fall well within this limit. However, always double-check your appliance's wattage to ensure it does not exceed 2500W at 250V.
