Electricity & Plugs in Sibiu

Electricity & Adapters

Voltage: 230V, 50Hz (same as most of Europe)

Plug Type: Type F (Schuko) - two round pins with two grounding clips on sides. Also compatible with Type C (Europlug) - two round pins without grounding.

USA/Canada Travelers: Need both voltage converter (USA uses 110-120V) AND plug adapter. Most modern electronics (laptops, phone chargers, cameras) have built-in converters (check device label for '100-240V'), requiring only plug adapter. Hair dryers, curling irons, and other heating appliances typically need voltage converter.

UK/Ireland Travelers: Need Type F/C adapter (UK uses Type G three-pin plugs).

Australia/New Zealand Travelers: Need Type F/C adapter (Type I plugs not compatible).

Where to Buy Adapters: Available at airports, electronics stores, larger supermarkets, and hotels (though often overpriced). Better to purchase before arrival or online.

USB Charging: Most hotels provide USB outlets or adapters. Public charging stations rare except in airports/shopping malls. Carry portable power bank for day trips.

Pro Tip: Bring universal travel adapter with multiple USB ports to charge multiple devices simultaneously with single outlet.
