Product Information

Full details

This Safe + Sound Travel Adaptor is designed for UK travelers heading to various European countries and beyond, offering a simple solution to connect your UK 3-pin plugs to a 2-pin socket. Its primary benefit is providing power for your essential devices in compatible regions. A key consideration is that while it covers many European countries, regional variations in plug sockets mean it's not universally compatible everywhere, so always check local standards. The adaptor converts a UK 3-pin plug to a 2-pin socket and is manufactured to British Standard BS 5733.

FAQs

Does this adaptor convert voltage?

No, this adaptor only changes the plug shape. It does not convert voltage. You must ensure your electrical devices are compatible with the local voltage of the country you are visiting.

Which countries can I use this adaptor in?

It is suitable for use in many countries including Tunisia, Morocco, Bulgaria, Serbia, Montenegro, Ukraine, Egypt, Czech Republic, Hungary, Slovakia, India, Israel, Norway, Poland, Russia, and Turkey. However, always check for regional variations in plug sockets.

Can I use this for my hair dryer from the UK?

You can use it to plug in your hair dryer, but only if your hair dryer is dual-voltage (compatible with 220-240V). If it is not dual-voltage, using it with this adaptor could damage the appliance.

What is the British Standard compliance?

The adaptor is manufactured to comply with British Standard BS 5733, which relates to the safety and performance of mains accessories.

How should I care for the travel adaptor?

Keep it dry, clean with a soft, dry cloth, and store it in a safe place when not in use. Avoid exposure to moisture and extreme temperatures.

What if the adaptor doesn't fit a socket?

Plug socket designs can vary slightly even within the same country. If it doesn't fit securely, try another socket. This adaptor is designed for standard 2-pin European sockets.

Troubleshooting

Device not powering on after plugging in

Ensure the UK plug is fully inserted into the adaptor and the adaptor is securely plugged into the wall socket. Verify the device itself is functional and compatible with the local voltage.

Adaptor feels loose in the wall socket

This may indicate a regional socket variation. Try a different socket in the same location if available. Ensure the adaptor is inserted straight and fully.

Inconsistent power or intermittent connection

Check for any debris in the wall socket or on the adaptor's pins. Ensure the UK plug is firmly seated within the adaptor.

Pins of the UK plug do not fit the adaptor

Confirm you are using the correct adaptor for the region. While designed for UK plugs, minor variations in UK plug manufacturing might occasionally cause a snug fit. Ensure the plug is aligned correctly before attempting insertion.
