Hi
I’m buying an apartment in Switzerland (currently in the UK) and wondered if anyone has had experience with universal plus sockets. I.e. a socket that can accept swiss (type j), uk, euro etc plugs. I have found the following UNIVERSAL CEE7 OUTLET SOCKET,
I need to have some electrical work done and wondered if it was worth installing some of these? Obviously I have Swiss adaptors already but thought this might be a nice touch for visitors.
No, they don’t have SEV1011 (Swiss) safety approvals.
A nice touch, if visitors come, is to hand then a couple of adaptors to use during their stay.
I got a couple of UK socket strips, cut the plugs off and replaced them with Swiss ones. My UK visitors like them.

Yup, me too. But most of our visitors are worldly enough to have their own adaptors. And phones, tablets, laptops often just need their own USB cables.
If you are thinking of changing some of your sockets you can get them here with USB A or C sockets built in. We had a couple installed when we redid our kitchen.
