In the Netherlands, the C-type socket is used, also known as the Europlug type. This is the most common type of socket in the Netherlands and many other European countries. The C-type socket has two round pins and is used for connecting electrical devices with C-plugs.

The C-type socket is characterized by the round holes in which the pins of the plug fit. It is a safe and standard socket type suitable for connecting a wide range of electronic devices, such as chargers, laptops, mobile phones, and so on.

If you want to connect electronic devices in the Netherlands, you will find that most households and public spaces are equipped with C-type sockets. It's important to ensure that the plugs on your devices are compatible with the C-type socket. If you're coming from another country where a different socket type is used, you may need a suitable travel adapter to connect your devices safely.
