    Xbox One won't turn on ?

    UK has a different power plug, and I bought it from amazon, if I bought it from Germany, the instructions and stuff would probably be in German, also I can't read German so I'd have to use google translate (which sucks) or something to be able to buy it
    from there, and so since I didn't think there would be any problems with buying it from the US since I had an adapter and it's region free, I just bought it from the US thinking everything was gonna work perfectly, which it didnt....

    3 pin kettle plug help.

    As others have said either just buy an adapter (A shaver one will work, or buy a german extension lead from same german amazon site and pout a UK plug on that), or cut the 2 pin end off the cord and just add a UK plug.

    As an ex UK Army member who worked in Germany for many years, there is no issues with using UK plugs to power German electronics. We often did the reverse. Kept all our UK electrics like TVs etc with UK plugs, but used a UK extension lead fitted with a
    German plug

    Xbox series s voltage UK and USA

    Hi, the internal power supply is multi-voltage so it can be used anywhere in the world. Your UK console will work fine in the U.S.

    All you'll need to do is replace the power cable which is a standard Fig 8 cable which can be purchased from most electrical stores or online from stores like Amazon.

    is my US xbox compatible with UK electrical voltage?

    It's multi-voltage, just needs a UK power cable. The cable is called a Figure 8 and it can be bought in many UK electrical stores or online.

    (I'm from the UK).

    Canadian Xbox Series X in the UK

    Don't worry, the Xbox Series X is multi voltage, so it will work anywhere in the world, as long as you have the correct power cable for the country you are in. In this case you will need a UK cable with a UK 3 pin plug fitted with a 5 amp fuse.
