Using 2 pins power cord instead of 3 pins that came with tbe laptop .

[M-Mostafa91]

My laptop came with a 3 pin power cord, but in my country we only have 2 pin electricity outlets, so is it safe to use 2 pin power cord instead of 3 pin or

use 3 pin to 2 pin converter

will this cause a damage to the laptop ?

Hi,

Yes, you can use a converter, it should have the third pin on the side I believe in your country.

Or you could replace only the cord part of the ac adapter

Ex

which you could probably find at your local electronics store.

Hope it helps,

David
