Type J Travel Adapter
The Type J Travel adapter is compatible only with Type J sockets but the Type J socket accepts a Type C plug as well.
The universal receptacle of the adapter accepts plugs from devices of all countries of the world so do not worry about compatibility with your device before buying.
However, be sure to check for your devices' voltage requirements here to see if you need a voltage converter in addition.
Works in:
- Switzerland
- Maldives
- Jordan
- Liechtenstein
- Madagascar
- Rwanda
All of the above countries operate at 230 V and 50 Hz except for Madagascar which operates at a dual voltage of 127 V & 220 V.

Technical specification
- The Type J Adapter has 3 round pins in the shape of an obtuse angled triangle. One of the 3 pins is a grounding pin
- Do not confuse the Type J Adapter with the Type N Adapter because they look quite identical but the Earthing pin is spaced differently for both adapters and hence they cannot be used interchangeably.
- So make sure you do not mistakenly try to jam your Type J Adapter into a Type N socket thinking it should fit because of the identical shapes.
- Type J adapters are rated 220-240 V and 10 A.
