Australia/U.S.A to Europe

This power plug is for Travellers from the United States/Australia and other Countries sharing the same standard for power plugs with United States/Australia for use in Europe.

Converts 2 flat pin U.S.A/Aust: plugs to 2 round Pin sockets in Europe. .

The adaptors do not allow for voltage changes.

Fortunately, most portable computers today come with power supplies that can be used in almost any part of the world. Check the manufacturer's label to see what type of input it can handle.

Those designed with inbuilt converter circuits for use just about anywhere have a section on the label that looks something like this:

INPUT: AC 115V - 240V ~ 50 / 60 Hz 0.55-0.3A

This shows that the device was designed to be used over a wide range of voltage levels and at different electrical frequencies.

In this particular example (based on Toshiba), the computer can accept nominal voltage anywhere from 115 volts to 240 volts and can operate on either a 50 Hz or 60 Hz system.

It is designed for alternating current (AC). Like most appliances, it should not be used on a direct current (DC) system.

The information can also be verified via your computer manuel(Electrical specification) or the manufacturer.
