I'm a thirty five year journeyman myself. I just heard my daughter will be studying in Italy this summer, Loyola's John Felice Center in Rome. I'm trying to find out what she'll need in terms of power adapters. The info I've found online isn't real clear.
First off what are the outlets voltage and Hz?
Secondly I think the outlets accept a "C" type plug? But I've found both a high power (with wide pins) and a low power (with smaller pins). Do they really use both?One site explained that it was so the low power appliances can plug into high power outlets, I guess that could be right or is there more to it?
She'll be bringing an Hewlet Packard Laptop, do they sell a compatable power supply she could just plug right in?
Can anyone that speaks electrician clear things up?
Thanks.
