๐Ÿ‡จ๐Ÿ‡ญ Switzerland to ๐Ÿ‡ง๐Ÿ‡ฎ BurundiSome of your plugs fit, some don't. It's complicated.

Some of your plugs fit Burundi's sockets directly. Grounded or chunkier ones need help.

What to pack

Plugbert recommends

Type C (Europlug) adapter

Some plugs from Switzerland fit the Type C and E sockets in Burundi and some don't, so pack an adapter. A Type C (Europlug) adapter fits the listed socket families there. For grounded devices, get a Type E (French / Schuko hybrid) 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 E (French / Schuko hybrid) 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.

Burundi uses 220 V and Switzerland uses 230 V, but similar nominal voltages do not guarantee compatibility. Check that your device's input rating covers the destination supply.
