This is listed as "Universal" but can I plug a NEMA 6-20 Plug into this strip or is it only for Euro plugs?

Hi Brad, I hv not used a Nema6-20 plug before and neither do I hv one to verify for you. Sori.As for the Euro plugs usuage; tis Wonpro strip will work for most "domestic" plugs.

The NEMA 6-20 plug is rated at 20A - and this power strip is only rated at 13A/220V (marked on it) and 250V with max current of 10A (rated power 2500W) according to the brochure with it. By design (for safety) 20A plugs will not fit in lesser rated power sockets (like 10A or 15A). It can though accept 20 kinds of plugs from 32 countries its patented with. So it will take any plug from standard domestic power - which is generally only up to 10A. I don't have an actual NEMA 6-20 plug to 100% confirm it - but by the look of the plug pin layout on the wiki on the NEMA entry the 6-20 active pin has a thicker vertical and normal thickness horizontal. The corresponding Wonpro socket only allows thick horizontal pins (for plugs like the UK one) and normal thickness vertical pins (like for the standard power US plug. The 6-20 earth pin will probably also not fit as the socket for the pin is again not wide enough at it's base to suit the thicker base earth pin. This would probably also disallow the NEMA 6-15 plug as it is 15A rated which both exceeds the rating again and as well the NEMA 6-15 plug has an earth pin which looks identical to the 6-20 earth pin so will not fit. Please note that I am going by the Wiki entry and the Wonpro WES4.5 power boards I bought and haven't tried plugging actual 6-20 & 6-15 plugs as I don't have them.

Not universal but can be used in 110 true 220v in my country(turkey) we use 220v and i do not have any problem about that. Great product, you should buy it.

I had the same problem. I believe they are sending units that have the European type plugs. I plan to wire a US type plug on mine.

As far as I can tell it only works on 110 v, regular household plug. I do not think it could be used in Europe unless you had the 110 v. You might want to check with the manufacturer.

YES! The AC adapter is a universal input "switching" model. You just need a prong adapter (Europlug and/or UK Type-G to NEMA-5).Specs on wall-wart:Switching AdapterMODEL:SUN-1200070INPUT:100-240V~ 50/60Hz 0.05AOUTPUT:12V --- 0.7A (positive center polarity)I was also pleasantly surprised to find the receptacle on the fan works well with either of the two most common types of barrel plugs... both fit and make good contact, so a couple car/cig adapters I've got laying around work just perfectly with this fan. The electronics near the plug (presumably the voltage regulator) gets noticeably warm during operation on wall or car power (but not on battery power), but after a few hours, it seems to be staying within reason.

Well, while the packaging does not specifically say it fits European, it does say "any open socket". But as I look at pictures of European electrical outlets, I'm pretty sure these are NOT the outlet covers for you. These have two parallel, rectangular prongs.

I had to add another adapter because it didn't fit. It is an European adapter.

This had a pigtail already attached. It is a NEMA 6-20R i believe. This is 20 amp, 240 volt. It is basically a standard outlet with one of the two blades turned 90 degrees.

I don't think so - This is a 50 amp cord for a household 220 - I use it with a welding machine and I had to have an electrician wire in a special outlet for it. NEMA 6-50

This is your standard plug in, not European. You would have to get an adapter. Does work great too!!

It fits my American plugs, but the voltage wasn't enough to sustain the device. I'm not sure if it would work for European, sorry hope this helps.

Yes. The 6 receptacles are designed to take *any* plug from around the planet.As long as your device is rated for 240V and the Tripp Lite can plug into a UK socket, you are fine.The price is a touch high for a power strip, but they are unbelievably handy. At first I thought it was an extravagant purchase, now I own 3.

My wife and I both have some European (German, French) plugs that work with these, They are pretty much universal.

I'm sorry, I do not know. I searched for a three prong that said Europe on it. I suggest that you look for an adapter that specifically names where you know you'll be traveling to. You may have to get more than one type.

Mario,I am not certain whether the chip works with the euro version or not. There are some voltage differences. I suggest that you you contact the manufacturer at info@neweratoner.com and verify that the chip will work in your version. My guess is that it will, but it still just a guess. Better to be certainbest of success in your search.

I'm not sure what you mean "universal" but it has a 110v plug and that's what I use.
