Type D plugs have three round pins in a triangular pattern and are generally used for grounded circuits of 220-240V. They are common in India and parts of South Asia.
Rated Current: 16A
Type E plugs consist of two round pins with a grounding hole. They are used for grounded circuits of 220-240V and are common in countries like France and Belgium.
Type F plugs have two round pins and grounding clips on the sides of the socket. They are used for grounded circuits of 220-240V and are common in Europe (e.g., Germany, the Netherlands, etc.).
Rated Current: 13A
Type G plugs have three rectangular pins, including a grounding pin. They are widely used in the United Kingdom, Hong Kong, Singapore, and other Commonwealth regions, with operating voltages of 220-240V.

Rated Voltage: 220V
Type H plugs have three pins: two flat and one round for grounding. They are rated for 220V and are mostly used in Israel and the Palestinian territories.
Rated Current: 10A
Type I plugs are primarily designed for grounded circuits, featuring three flat pins with the middle pin for grounding (slightly longer). They are used for 220-240V and are common in Australia, New Zealand, and nearby regions.
Type J plugs have three round pins, with the middle pin being slightly shorter. They are compatible with type C outlets but provide grounding. Commonly used in Switzerland and some other countries for 220-240V applications.
Type K plugs have three round pins, with an earthing pin placed between the two prongs. It is the Danish standard plug and is designed for 220-240V circuits, suitable for most household appliances.
Rated Voltage: 230V
Type L plugs have three round pins arranged in a straight line, with a grounding pin. They are primarily used in grounded circuits (220-240V) in Italy and Chile.
Type M plugs feature three large round pins with grounding functionality. They are commonly used for industrial and high-power applications (220-240V) in parts of South Africa.
Rated Voltage: 100-240V
Type N plugs have two round pins and one grounding pin arranged in a triangular pattern. They support voltages from 100-240V and are primarily used in Brazil and South Africa.
Type O plugs have two round pins and one grounding pin arranged in a straight-line pattern. They are designed for 230V~50Hz circuits and are primarily used in Thailand.
