Type A: Type A plugs have two flat prongs on either side of the plug. Mostly used in the United States, Canada, Mexico, Central America, China, Japan, Taiwan, Philippines, and Thailand. Type A outlets only work with Type A plugs.
Type C: Type C plugs have two round prongs on either side of the plug, commonly known as Euro plugs. Mostly used in Europe, South America, and, Africa. Type C outlets can be fit with either Type E or Type F plugs.
