From Saint Pierre and Miquelon to Israel
When travelling from Saint Pierre and Miquelon to Israel: Some of your Saint Pierre and Miquelon plug types fit in Israel (C). Bring a compact adapter for the others. Voltage matches at 230V, so a basic plug adapter is enough for most devices. Frequency is the same at 50Hz.

About electricity in Israel
Israel is 230V/50Hz with Type C and H sockets. Type H is unique to Israel, three round pins in a Y shape.
Grid & history
Israel’s grid runs primarily on natural gas (since the Tamar and Leviathan offshore fields came online) with rapidly growing solar in the Negev. The grid is islanded, no cross-border interconnects.
Availability
Excellent reliability nationwide.
Sockets & hotels
Type H sockets typically accept both Type H and Type C (Europlug) plugs. Older sockets are Type H-only; bring a dedicated Israeli adapter if your plugs are anything else.
Energy mix
Natural gas dominates; solar growing.
Practical tips
- A Type C Europlug fits most modern Israeli sockets directly.
- For older buildings or any non-C plug, bring a dedicated Type H adapter (less common in universal kits).
- Voltage is 230V; modern chargers are fine.
