@lizzard @lettosprey @megatronicthronbanks @timonsku (BTW it's always the same voltage, the difference is maximum current, i.e. amps... "normal" europlugs AKA type C are generally rated only for up to 2.5 A, i.e. 600 W at 240 V, although same-sized type L are up to 10 A i.e. 2400 W; Schuko is generally rated up to 16 A i.e. 3840 W)

@cvtsi2sd @lizzard @lettosprey @megatronicthronbanks @timonsku Well, actually the main difference is the missing ground contact on type C. That's why it's only used on appliances that need no ground...
