What it means for your plugs
Your plugs
Your Australian plugs won't fit. Italy has Type C, F and L sockets, and a Type C adaptor (two round pins) fits all three. A few larger Type L sockets take only Type L plugs.
The power
The power is 230 V, close to home, so a converter isn't needed.
- Type C: two round pins
- Type F: two round pins with earth clips on the sides
- Type L: three round pins in a row
