Norway uses the Type C and Type F electrical plugs and sockets, aligning with most continental European countries.
- Plug Types:
- Voltage and Frequency:
- Voltage: 230 V (±10%), standardized across Norway.
- Frequency: 50 Hz.
- Socket Compatibility:
- Type C plugs fit into Type F sockets, but Type F plugs may not fit into Type C sockets due to their grounding clips.
- Safety Standards:
- Norwegian sockets comply with the EU’s harmonized CEE 7/4 (Type F) and CEE 7/16 (Type C) standards.
- Grounded appliances (e.g., washing machines) typically use Type F for safety.
- Travel Adapters:
- Visitors from regions like the UK, US, or Asia will need a plug adapter.
- Norway does not use Type A/B (North American) or Type G (UK) plugs.
- Voltage Compatibility:
- Most modern electronics (e.g., laptops, phones) support 100–240 V, but always check device labels.
Norway’s infrastructure ensures reliable power delivery, making it traveler-friendly for those prepared with the right adapters.
