blackcab Posted December 14, 2018 Posted December 14, 2018 I need an adapter to make a USA plug fit into a Thai socket. I don't need to change the voltage, as the power supply is 110-220v 50-60h. Does anyone have a link to something reasonably priced and hopefully not massive in size (as it needs to be plugged into a socket in the ceiling). Even if it is technically possible, I cannot chop off the US plug and replace it with a Thai plug as the US plug is part of a moulded transformer (lower plug in this picture). All help gratefully appreciated!
lopburi3 Posted December 14, 2018 Posted December 14, 2018 What kind of an outlet do you have that does not accept a US plug? US plugs are often used here and have not seen wall outlets that did not accept them. The only real Thai plug is the new type O 3 round pin type - but have never seen an outlet that only allowed that plug here. Below is the normal wall outlet and they accept USA plugs. 2

Only scenario: the US transformer has round pins and the wall socket is an old fashioned type that only allows flat pin. In either case: all kind of adapters for such low power stuff are available at hardware stores/departments. 10, 15, 20 Baht or so. 1
blackcab Posted December 14, 2018 Author Posted December 14, 2018 Oh great stuff! I didn't realise a US plug fitted into a Thai socket. For once my life is going to be easy, as the transformer has flat pins and not round pins. Thank you for helping me out.
