Newer transformers are pretty universal if you look at the specs. Many will take anywhere from 100-240 volts at 50 or 60 Hz, so just kludge it to plug in and youll be fine.
The power block (not really – it looks like a network adapter to me) has a hexagonal shape of slim 2-pin 240V Euro plugs
The plugs are 240V European plugs
This kludge is not about onverting the plug type but repairing the broken pins in the block’s plug
I rather believe, that the power block just didn’t fit among the other plugs in the distribution box, thus he kludged an extension cord with. I might be wrong.
That’s a French power strip. Well, it could be German/French, but I definitely have one of those cell phone chargers plugged in to a French 3-way power strip right next to me. I couldn’t fit in that kind of modem DC adapter (Orange is an ISP) in the slot next to it.
But I’d imagine that there would be room by rearranging the order… that single normal plug on the left could be in the middle and be fine. So, bent pins on the DC adapter sounds logical.
Which is to say nothing about the DC adapter missing the two pins it should have…
Plug computers ftw!
