Electric Socket Types, Voltage, and Plug Compatibility in Albania

Electric Socket Types, Voltage, and Plug Compatibility in Albania
Type C
Type F
  • Plug types: Albania uses Type C (Europlug, two round pins) and Type F (Schuko, two round pins with earth clips) sockets.
  • Voltage and frequency: Standard supply is 230V at 50Hz.
  • Compatibility: Devices from most European countries (EU) are compatible. Travelers from the UK (Type G), USA (Type A/B, 120V), and Australia (Type I) will need plug adapters. US devices may also require a voltage converter due to the 230V supply.
  • Adapters and converters: Plug adapters are widely available at airports, electronics shops, and some hotels. Voltage converters are less common; bring one if your device is not rated for 220–240V.
  • Safety tips: Use surge protectors for sensitive electronics. Ensure your adapter is grounded if your device requires it. Multi-plug adapters are common, but check for overloading.
  • Local practices: Occasional power outages may occur, especially in rural areas. Multi-plug extension cords are frequently used in hotels and homes.
