I gonna talk about the electric standards in Spain. Spain, as all the countries of the continental Europe, use the standard voltage of 220v. European sockets are formed by two round pins. Those pins are more separated than pins of the american standard (used also in some contries of Asia). But bigger separation imply bigger sockets. In the image, you can see a rounded pin iPod charger. The adaptation make an ugly charger, with a bigger socket than the body charger width. Horrible.
