What you need, by where you are coming from

  • Arriving from the United States or CanadaA plug adapter, and appliances marked 100-240 V. Anything single-voltage needs a converter.
  • Arriving from the UK or IrelandA plug adapter is enough - the voltage is the same as at home.
  • Arriving from most of continental EuropePlugs go straight in and the voltage matches. Nothing to pack.
  • Arriving from Australia or New ZealandA plug adapter is enough - the voltage is the same as at home.

Socket types, voltage and frequency are the nominal domestic supply as published in IEC/TR 60083 and the national standards it lists.

Armenian sockets are Type and at 230 V, the European round-pin pattern.

Sockets in Armenia are Type and at 230 V, 50 Hz - two round pins, the same shape as continental Europe.

  • A Europlug fits every socket in the country, and Schuko plugs fit the earthed ones.
  • British, American and Australian plugs need an adapter.
  • Soviet-era sockets are unearthed and slightly narrower, so a heavy European plug occasionally needs a firm push.
  • Georgia and Iran, the two open land borders, use the same round pins, so the plug is one thing that does not change in the region.
  • 230 V, so American 120 V-only appliances need a converter, not just a shape adapter.
