Please note that power plug adapters only convert plug types and do not convert voltages. Traveling around the continent? Check out all power plugs used in Europe. I am from Select a country Type C plug. Type F plug. Tourists wishing to use laptops, cell phones , battery chargers, and other electrical appliances in Italy need to know how to convert the appliances for use in Italy, and how to connect that appliance to the sockets in the wall.
Electricity in Italy, as in the rest of Europe , comes out of the wall socket at volts alternating at 50 cycles per second. In the US, electricity comes out of the wall socket at volts, alternating at 60 cycles per second. Not only the voltages and frequencies but the sockets themselves are different. The photo above shows a normal Italian power socket. To access it with an adapter that connects to a typical American power plug, you'll need an adapter like the one shown in the photo below, or one of these recommended power adapters and converters.
The plug adapters shown in the photo are probably all you need to convert the US rectangular pronged plug to the round prong Italian power plug used in most Italian homes and hotels. This adapter is ungrounded, which is why it doesn't have a third, center prong. This is fine for devices which are insulated having a plastic body, for instance. Some adapters of this type have a USB port, meaning you can use them to charge a cell phone or digital camera via USB.
Plug adapters are the interfaces between the American flat-pronged plug and Italy's two or three round-prong socket. These allow you to plug your electrical device into the Italian wall socket, but they do not convert the electricity to the American volts.
If your appliance is designed to run only on volts, you are likely to see smoke, if not fire, from this potent miss-mating. You will need a step-down power converter or transformer to safely step the voltage down from to More on this later.
In Italy the standard voltage is V and the frequency is 50 Hz. You can use your electric appliances in Italy, if the standard voltage in your country is in between - V as is in the UK, Europe, Australia and most of Asia and Africa. Manufacturers take these small deviations into account. If the standard voltage in your country is in the range of V - V as is in the US, Canada and most South American countries , you need a voltage converter in Italy.
If the frequency in Italy 50 Hz differs from the one in your country, it is not advised to use your appliances. But if there is no voltage difference, you could at your own risk try to use the appliance for a short time.
Be especially careful with moving, rotating and time related appliances like clocks, shavers or electric fan heaters. This travel adapter and converter combo have 2 modes, adapter mode and converter mode.
