Tomorrow, I’m moving to the UK (yay!) I lived in France for 3 years, and everything has European Sockets. I’ve got for now one Adaptator That goes from European Sockets to UK Sockets. And I was simply wondering if it was ok to plug a 6-EU Multi-Socket into an Adapter? A 600w PC and a 2k144hz screen will be plugged in it, and maybe a lamp, and sometimes my phone charging

Have a Wonderful Day while you’re at it!

    Technically, you’re probably not supposed to.

    Practically, yes, it works and is reasonably safe (unless the adapter is cheap garbage). Make sure the adapter has a fuse.

    Long term, you could also consider replacing the plug on one of the multi-sockets with a UK plug.

    However, the PC almost certainly uses a standard C13 cable. If the monitor also has a cable like that (e.g. a C13 or C5 going to the power supply), consider just buying replacement cables with UK plugs.
