Schuko Male Plug 16A/250VAC, Black

A Schuko plug features two round pins of 4.8 mm diameter (19 mm long, centers 19 mm apart) for the line and neutral contacts, plus two flat contact areas on the top and bottom side of the plug for protective ground

What is the difference between Schuko plug and EU plug? Europlugs have pins with a diameter of 4.0 mm, whereas Schuko slots are scaled for 4.8 mm pins. This mismatch may result in a somewhat unstable connection, notably when a bulky or heavy appliance plug is used, for example a cell phone or laptop charger. The Schuko system originated in Germany.
