Type H Plug Adaptors
Compatibility
Compatible with: Type H sockets only. Type C plugs are compatible with type H sockets although their pins are slightly smaller than the type H plugs (4mm vs 4.5mm). Type E & F plugs have partial compatibility as they can often be made to fit but the body of some plugs may not fit within the recess of some of the type H sockets.
See our full plug & socket compatibility table for further information.
