Hi everyone! I wanted to know what kind of adapters should I purchase for my electronics so that I can plug them into an outlet in Saudi Arabia?

Electricity in Saudi Arabia. In Saudi Arabia the power sockets are of type A, B, C and G. The standard voltage is 110 / 220 V and the standard frequency is 60 Hz.

Thank you! But why do they have multiple socket types? Does everyone just carry around multiple adapters?

The most common one nowadays is G.  Especially in the newer buildings.  The other ones exist but people are shifting out of those.
