Do You Need a Plug Adapter or a Voltage Converter?
A plug adapter changes the shape of your plug so it fits into the wall outlet. A voltage converter changes the electrical voltage going into your device.
Many modern electronics like phones, tablets, and laptops are dual voltage, which means they usually only need the correct adapter. Some devices, especially certain hair tools and older appliances, may not be dual voltage and can be damaged if used incorrectly.
Because travelers are coming from different countries with different plug shapes and voltage standards, the right answer is not always the same for everyone. That’s why each guide is meant to help you quickly understand what matters before you plug anything in.
