Some of your plugs fit Uruguay'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, F, I and L sockets in Uruguay and some don't, so pack an adapter. A Type C (Europlug) adapter fits 3 of the 4 listed socket families there. For grounded devices, get a Type F (Schuko) 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 F (Schuko) 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.

Uruguay 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.
