      What’s great is that it’s also “backwards-compatible” with type E. Male type E plugs will usually also have ground connections for a type F, so you can plug it into female E and F sockets.

      Edit: In fact, looking back at the picture, that’s exactly the kind of male plug shown for both type E and F. It works with both types. It has the hole for an earth prong, but it also has a contact on the bottom side if you look closely.

        I will say the comparability is amazing and a really good thing! The type f plugs are amazing. Nothing bad about more ground connections!
        Just wished the type f sockets had a solid piece of metal, instead of the springs. Then they’d be perfect! :D
