From Fiji to Italy
When travelling from Fiji to Italy: None of your Fiji plug types fit in Italy. You will need a travel adapter. Voltage is different (240V → 230V). Check your charger label; if it doesn’t list 230V you’ll also need a voltage converter. Frequency is the same at 50Hz.

About electricity in Italy
Italy uses 230V/50Hz with Type C, F, and L sockets. Type L is the Italian three-pins-in-a-line standard, and you will not see it anywhere else.
Grid & history
Italy phased out domestic nuclear after the 1987 referendum and now imports significant electricity from France and Switzerland. Solar is a major contributor today, with gas covering most of the rest.
Availability
Reliability is good in cities. Rural southern Italy and Sicily occasionally see short outages during heatwaves.
Sockets & hotels
Type L comes in two sizes: a 10A narrow version and a 16A wide one. Italian sockets often accept all of C, F, and L in the same hole, though older buildings may only have Type L.
Energy mix
Significant electricity imports from neighbours.
Practical tips
- A universal adapter covering C, F, and L is safest, especially in historic city centres.
- Modern hotels almost always have at least one Schuko (F) or hybrid socket.
