Plug adaptors

I’ve been to Italy six times and have never needed to use anything except my adapter with two rounded prongs.

The Internet is, as usual, wrong.
Italy has one kind of outlet. It looks like this: https://www.rei.com/pix/expertAdvice/articles/ea6041_type_l_italy.gif
Three pin plugs are different from those in other European countries, but two-pin plugs are the same as the rest of Europe (photo: https://upload.wikimedia.org/wikipedia/commons/6/63/Euro-Flachstecker_2.jpg )

Which adapter you need depends on whether your appliance is 2- or 3-pin.

From Milan to Sorrento and everywhere in between, this is what I used

Just a two pin plug adaptor is needed for Italy.

Italy has one kind of outlet. It looks like this:

According to the list on this website, www.worldstandards.eu/electricity/plug-voltage-by-country, there are actually three types of outlets (receptacles) used in Italy, C, F, & L. Type L, the one to which Chris linked, is the standard grounded Italian receptacle. Type F is the German Schuko receptacle, which is being used more and more in new construction, along with type L, in Italy. It will accept either the German (type F) or the French (type E) grounding plug. Type C is an older, ungrounded design, no longer used in new construction, but still in existence in older buildings.

The point is, all of the types will accept the type C, two pin, non-grounding plug adapter, sometimes called the Europlug adapter. The Europlug adapter should not be used with an American grounding (three prong) plug, an American polarizing (one blade wider) plug, or any non-continental-European appliance drawing more than 2½ amps (575W at 230V).

In addition to the plug adapters, be sure to check each appliance you'll be travelling with to determine whether it's designed for operation on 230 VAC electrical systems. If you connect a device that's only designed for 115 VAC, you'll get a rude awakening within a few seconds, probably accompanied by sparks and smoke.

We use a european power strip. Best travel gadget ever. Plug it in outlet and plug your phone etc into strp.and DONE.

I always take a 6 foot extension cord with multiple plugs in the end of the extension cord. I then tape my adapter using electrical tape to the male end of the plug. This way, I only have to take one adapter and I don’t accidentally leave my adapter in the wall when I unplug the extension cord. Also, the extension cord gives me more freedom to view my phone when the plug is not in a convenient place.
