Europlug Compatibility

The Europlug is designed to be compatible with [Types C, E, F, and K]

Still trying to figure out why Germany is listed separately from the EU.

E, C and F, because they are all somewhat compatible.

does type A just have no ground?

This diagram doesn’t do the utter goofiness of type M justice.

Here are a few styles you will come across.

I think I would like Australia's over the rest.

The recessed circles I feel like they would gather dust and grime in there if you don't use it often and be tough to clean out.

I like the angles prongs as well as the switch to turn it off and on.

B or N. They’re simple and effective, grounded but optionally, but most importantly you can fit two in a small space.

I can’t tell if N is polarized though, so B is the boss

K is the happiest. I like that one. B is shocked (pun!) at what's going on. H is encouraging me to see things in a racist light.

The British plug has a lot of features that are supposed to make it very, very safe. It'd be interesting to see if there's a study out there that tries to make apples-to-apples comparisons of electrical accidents in different countries. Do those features actually work out in practice?

The US plug is bad, but does that actually translate into more accidents? Hard to say. If you can do the study above, then you can start making the argument for switching to something else.

As a Brazilian, that makes me so sad. We used to have a type that could fit European and American plugs, but they just changed it. Never gonna let it go hahaha

I like type F for the symmetry. However, type K is smiling.

There was two different ways you could have ordered this alphabetically, and you failed to do either.

I like N,C,E,F, and K But I really like the switches on the UK plugs.

F, C, E, K..... Are they all directly compatible?
