FAQs
Will this adapter convert the voltage from 110V to 240V?
No, this adapter only changes the physical plug shape. It does not convert voltage. You must ensure your device is designed to work with the UK's 230V power supply.

This adapter has a maximum load of 13 amps. It is suitable for most personal electronics but may not be suitable for high-power appliances that draw significantly more current.
What countries can I use this adapter for when traveling to the UK?
This adapter is designed for visitors from countries that use Type A (e.g., USA, Japan), Type I (e.g., Australia, New Zealand), and Type C/F (e.g., most of Europe) plugs.
How many adapters are included in this pack?
This product is a 4-pack, meaning you receive four individual UK visitor adapters.
Is it safe to leave my device plugged in overnight?
As long as your device is compatible with UK voltage and designed for continuous charging, and the adapter is securely fitted, it is generally safe. Always follow the manufacturer's guidelines for your specific device.
What does BS1363-3 compliance mean?
BS1363-3 is a British Standard that specifies safety requirements for secondary electrical equipment, including adaptors. Compliance indicates the product has met these safety regulations.
Troubleshooting

Ensure you are using a UK Type G socket. Check if the adapter's pins are straight and undamaged.
