But does anyone know what adaptor is needed for Switzerland as from internet looks as if there is 3 pins. Thanks for help

The same adaptor should work - you just won't be using the third hole.


See http://kropla.com/electric2.htm which says that Switzerland uses type J plugs - but that C type also fit. Your adaptor is almost certainly type C

dzug Thanks a lot, for your help, am looking forward to going and to have my little kettle for a drink in the hotel.
In my experience, the travel adapters you find in airport shops etc do NOT have an earth contact (even though they may have a socket for the earth pin of UK plugs).
