Now I want to turn it over to you: Through my article, you will understand which countries use type c plugs？
Do you have a different point of view on the electrical outlet? Or any other questions?
Let me know by leaving a quick comment below right now.

Type c plugs types.
Type c plugs can be broadly divided into conversion power plugs, injection power plugs, and assembly power plugs.
Conversion power plugs
Each country’s power plug standards are different; for example, from China’s power plug to the United States, it can not be used; you must need a conversion plug to complete the conversion. So you need to convert the power plug. A conversion power plug is to convert a national standard plug to another country’s standard power plug.
Injection-molded power plugs
Injection-molded plugs are plugs and wires through high temperature; high pressure pressed together, once formed, it can not be installed and removed, so the power plug features are very obvious, solid, and safe. More than 80% of the general circulation of power plugs on the market are such power plugs.
Assembly power plug
Assembly plug is the power cord and plugs through the screws and others fixed together, but in the use of the process can be installed and removed so as to ensure the flexibility of the power plug. For example, a large proportion of the British market is using this assembly power plug.
So, which countries use type c plugs?
Currently, the countries that use type c plugs are:
China, Korea, North Korea, Vietnam, Cambodia, Burma, Thailand, Malaysia, Indonesia, East Timor, India, Nepal, Bangladesh, Pakistan, Afghanistan, Kazakhstan, Uzbekistan, Kyrgyzstan, Tajikistan, Armenia, Azerbaijan, Iran, Iraq, Kuwait, Oman, Israel, Palestine, Syria, Lebanon, Jordan, Channel Islands, Isle of Man, Netherlands, Belgium France, Monaco, Spain, Balearic Islands, Andorra, Portugal, Germany, Luxembourg, Switzerland, Liechtenstein, Austria, Czech Republic, Slovakia, Hungary, Italy, Greece, Slovenia, Croatia, Albania, Montenegro, Serbia, Bosnia and Herzegovina, Macedonia, Turkey, Denmark, Faroe Islands, Finland, Sweden, Norway Iceland, Latvia, Lithuania, Belarus, Ukraine, Moldova, Romania, Bulgaria, Russia, Greenland, Guadeloupe, Saint Vincent and the Grenadines,
Martinique, Suriname, Brazil, Paraguay, Peru, Bolivia, Uruguay, Chile, Argentina, French Guiana, Egypt, Sudan, Tunisia, Algeria, Morocco, Canary Islands, Madeira Assyria, Eritrea, Djibouti, Ethiopia, Somalia, Luanda, Burundi, Mozambique, Guatemala, Madagascar, Mauritius, Mauritius, Cape Verde, Senegal, Guinea-Bissau, Guinea, Laibiria, Mauritania, Mali, Ivory Coast, Burkina Faso, Togo, Benin, Niger, Angola, Cameroon, Central African Republic, Equatorial Guinea Gabon, Republic of Congo, Zambia;The above countries are using type c plugs.
Used in most European countries and regions, except the UK, Ireland, Cyprus, and Malta
Often referred to as “European style plugs.”
Not for grounded use
Type C sockets are no longer available
Class A Type C plugs can be fully inserted into E, F, J, K, or L sockets.
Probably the most used international plug
What are the types of plugs and sockets?
1, type A: this type of plug socket has no grounding end, it is characterized by the use of the power cord cross-section size and current rating, and other places are not the same.
2, B type: this type of plug socket has a grounding end, the rated current to 15A, such as this used more.
3, C type（type c plugs）：This plug socket is the most widely used in Europe; it is not grounded and can only be used in places where the current is not greater than 2.5 A.
4, D type: this type of plug socket is mainly used in India; the shape of the plug can be divided into triangular and round, the two pins make.
5, E type: now, no longer see this type of plug; this socket is different from other types in its grounding end, and the power supply is always connected together.
6, F-type: it is similar to the C-type plug socket, but this switch is not divided into zero-fire wires and can be connected at will.
7, G type: this is a triangular plug; in the United Kingdom, they installed a protective cover inside the socket to prevent something from running into the socket caused by touching the electricity.
8, H type: this type of plug socket is only for Israel to use; it is a V-shaped two-pronged plug; this plug can also be used as a C-type socket.
9, I type: this type of plug socket looks the same as the H-type plug, but the two socket types can not be used together.
10, J type: this is the standard plug socket in Switzerland; the power supply’s rated current can not exceed 10A.
11, K-type: this type of plug socket and F-type are similar, but it is directly with the grounding clip instead of the terminal.
12, L-type: this type of plug socket, according to the different rated currents, can be divided into two, one is 10A, and the other is 6A. And the intervals between the pins of this type and the other are different.
Explosion-proof plug and the difference between the air plug
1, explosion-proof plugs
This plug mainly includes two parts: the pin and the socket, the socket is connected to the caller’s side, and the plug is connected to the electrical appliances we use, which can be quickly switched on and off. Its shell is made of aluminum alloy; through high-pressure electrostatic spraying, the shell of explosion-proof performance is very good and very beautiful.
2、Aerial plugs
This plug was first originated from the military industry and belonged to a connector; its service life is based on the number of plugs to determine the number of times; a good one can be pulled about 1000 times, and the poor ones can be pulled about 500 times. Choose a good aviation plug; the most important thing is to look at its own electrical parameters.（type c plugs）
