Asker: Thanks! I will put a little explanation in brackets just in case if native English speakers read the document.


Peer comments on this answer (and responses from the answerer)
agree  Mark Daniels: Agreed, I've had this come up lots of times. The term is not so well-known among native English speakers simply because the Americans and British use a different type and so probably just call this "European" or something, but Schuko is the proper term.
