πΏπ¦ South Africa to π΅π PhilippinesSome of your plugs fit, some don't. It's complicated.
Some of your plugs fit the Philippines's sockets directly. Grounded or chunkier ones need help.
What to pack
Plugbert recommends
Type A (US 2-pin) adapter
Some plugs from South Africa fit the Type A, B and C sockets in the Philippines and some don't, so pack an adapter. A Type A (US 2-pin) adapter fits 2 of the 3 listed socket families there. For grounded devices, get a Type B (US 3-pin) adapter for a compatible grounded outlet instead; it does not fit every listed outlet. Socket variants can differ; check the actual outlet and adapter rating.
For equipment requiring earth, choose a Type B (US 3-pin) adapter for a compatible grounded outlet. Check its supported inputs and rated load. A two-pin output cannot provide an earth connection.
Tip: a "universal" travel adapter may be useful for several destinations. Check its wall-side plugs, grounding and power limits against your trip.
