Plug Type and Travel Adapter Guide for Israel

Plug types used in Israel

Israel uses 2 plug types: Type C and H. Of these, Type H are not used in India, so you'll need a travel adapter for those sockets.

Type C

Type C: Uses two parallel, round pins.

Type H

Type H: Three round pins on the plug's lower half.

Main Voltage in Israel

Do I Need a Voltage Converter in Israel?

Israel runs on a main voltage of 230 volts at a frequency of 50 Hz. This is effectively the same as India's 230V/50Hz. You can plug any Indian device into a Israel socket without a voltage converter, as long as the plug shape fits.

Will my Indian charger work in Israel?

Yes, but it depends on which socket your hotel has. Israel uses Type C and H sockets at 230V/50Hz. Your Indian phone and laptop chargers are dual-voltage (the label reads 100–240V), so they handle Israel voltage without any issue. The only question is plug shape — your Indian plug fits Type C sockets directly, but will not fit Type H sockets without an adapter. You do not need a voltage converter — Israel's 230V is the same as India's 230V.
