About Plugchord

Plugchord covers 15 plug types and 215 countries — voltage, frequency, and what actually fits the wall, with every face drawn to scale from its pin dimensions in millimetres.

Grid facts are verified against the IEC's public World Plugs reference and each page links its source. The prose is entirely our own — the IEC catalogs the facts; we describe what they mean at the wall. Compatibility verdicts are computed from pin geometry and each socket standard's acceptance list, never hand-typed, so the checker can't disagree with the reference pages.

Verdicts are physical-fit and voltage arithmetic, not safety advice. Mains electricity deserves respect: when a combination looks marginal, ask a professional, not a website.

Plugchord is part of a small network of reference sites built with the same conviction: one honest page for the thing you actually searched for.
