Ireland · Type G
First-time electricity basics
Ireland uses Type G: three rectangular-pin blades, 230 V and 50 Hz. A plug adaptor changes pin shape only; it does not convert voltage or frequency.
Match the item to the problem
Adapter, charger or cable?
An adapter changes plug shape. A charger is the power brick. A USB-C or Lightning cable is the lead: choose the connector that matches your phone. Prefer charger input marked 100–240 V~ (50/60 Hz); do not use a 110/120 V-only device on Irish mains without suitable conversion.

Phone shop · chargers and adapters
Need a charger or plug adapter? The phone shop at 67 Lower Camden Street is in the same building as the apartments and sells both. Bring your device or cable so the shop can help you choose the right connector and an Irish Type G adapter.
