Can you use a US plug in Europe?


Can you use a US plug in Europe? A small adapter allows American-style plugs (two flat prongs) to fit into British or Irish outlets (which take three rectangular prongs) or continental European outlets (which take two round prongs). Adapters are inexpensive — bring a handful.


Is a US plug the same as EU?

European plugs are not compatible with American electrical sockets. In order to plug in your electric appliances, you will need a plug adapter or a converter. Otherwise, you will not be able to use your electric appliances during your U.S. road trip (phone charger, camera charger, laptop or tablet, etc.).
