Which power adapter do I use for Israel?

Hi,

I have the Apple travel adapter kit but can't find out which plug works in Israel. All the information I find on the net indicates Israel uses a completely unique adapter that is not shared. However, one page said I can use the "thin round" european plug there.

Any suggestions?

I visited Israel recently and can confirm that the European plug works well after using a little pressure. It is true that Israel has a unique 3 pin system but no need to have a 3 pin connector.

Thanks for the tip. All was well while using the Euro adapter for my gear. The Israeli plugs look pretty odd (almost like they're run down or broken) since they allow for both slanted, flat prongs as well as the insertion of the small, round European plug.

Welcome to Apple Discussion.

This citation explains the unique Israeli grounded Type H plug and socket.

This one notes the ability to use the ungrounded, two prong Type C or Europlug plug in the Type H socket.
