The adaptor accepts the wider-spaced pins of a Schuko plug and presents a UK 3-pin configuration that fits into any BS1363 socket outlet. A built-in 13A fuse provides overcurrent protection, and the white thermoplastic housing meets BS1363\/3 safety standards for travel adaptors.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eDesigned for European visitors to the UK bringing laptops, phone chargers, shavers and other dual-voltage appliances rated up to 13A at 230V, the adaptor allows direct use of European equipment without rewiring or replacing the plug. The compact form factor adds minimal bulk to the original plug, making it suitable for bedside socket use in hotels, rental properties and residential guest rooms.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe white finish matches standard UK socket faceplates and blends into most interior schemes without drawing attention. The adaptor does not convert voltage — it only changes the physical plug configuration — so the connected appliance must already be rated for UK 230V mains. Check the appliance's voltage rating plate before use.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch5\u003eFrequently Asked\u003c\/h5\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eDoes this convert voltage?\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eNo. The adaptor only changes the physical plug configuration from EU Schuko 2-pin to UK 3-pin. The connected appliance must already be rated for UK 230V mains. Most modern laptops, phone chargers and shavers are dual-voltage (100-240V) and will work without issue, but always check the voltage rating plate on the appliance before connecting.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eWhat is the maximum load?\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe adaptor is rated at 13A, which equates to 2,990W at 230V. This is sufficient for most portable electronics, including laptops, chargers, hairdryers and travel kettles. The built-in 13A fuse will blow if the load exceeds this rating.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eIs it compliant with UK safety standards?\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eYes. The adaptor complies with BS1363\/3, the British Standard for travel adaptors and conversion plugs. This ensures it meets the same safety requirements as standard UK plugs and sockets.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eCan it be used with a UK extension lead?\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eYes. Once the European plug is inserted into the adaptor, the resulting UK 3-pin configuration can be plugged into any UK socket outlet, including extension leads, surge protectors and wall sockets.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"AVSL","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":45313436090635,"sku":"429.829UK","price":2.99,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0729\/8993\/3835\/files\/429829UK_LD1_6368d02e-6898-4730-86c7-411b5bbadb61.jpg?v=1715192905","url":"https:\/\/niori.co.uk\/products\/mercury-eu-schuko-to-uk-travel-adaptor-white-13a","provider":"Niori","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
