You can rotate F 180 degrees and plug it in.

Type F plugs also works with the type E sockets. Superior.

BS. Type F/Schuko is the USB-C of power sockets/plugs.

Type G only exists because the British skimped on wiring after WW2 and needed to put a fuse in each plug for safety, hence the chonkiness.

Can’t rotate type G 180°. And since type F sockets are recessed, it’s just as unlikely to get shocked as with type G. Ground even connects first. And it’s directly compatible with type C and most type E plugs (since E&F usually share the same plug design, just the socket is a little different). What advantage would type G have to F?

Go watch any video comparing plugs and I bet the majority say Type G. It has so many safety features it’s unreal.

That plug is only useful for a device that pays respects and nothing else.

The plug design from my country looks elegant and rational, all the rest are koo-koo-krazy-town.
