Travel adapter from Saudi Arabia to Spain
Adapter Required
Yes — coming from Saudi Arabia, you will need a travel adapter for Spain. Saudi Arabia uses Type G plugs, and Spain uses Type C/Type F, so the pin shapes will not fit any wall socket. The mains frequency is also different (60 Hz vs 50 Hz). This rarely matters for electronics but can affect motor-driven devices like clocks and shavers.
