Electricity and sockets
You will need an adapter for Types C and F. Plugs from the UK do not fit the sockets in Armenia.
Sockets at the destination
Mains supply in Armenia: 230 V, 50 Hz, sockets of Types C and F. At 230 V the supply matches what UK and European appliances expect, so no converter is needed.
You will find identical sockets in Indonesia, Türkiye, Georgia and Mongolia. Travelling further to Singapore, Qatar and the United Arab Emirates means a different adapter. 17 of the 50 destinations in Asia share the plug types of Armenia.
Protective earth
Mixed supply: Type C without earth, Type F with earth. Which one is in your room only shows on arrival.
