What it means for your plugs
Your plugs
No adaptor needed. China uses the same Type I socket as Australia, so your plugs fit.
The power
The power is 230 V, close to home, so a converter isn't needed. Hong Kong and Macau use Type G instead.
- Type A: two flat pins
- Type I: two angled flat pins and an earth pin
