Actually, I can give you an exact snapshot of the
plugs in the Sheraton
rooms.
They are standard grounded three prong US/Canada 110V plugs.
From our site visit earlier this year, this is what is in the room next
to the work desk:

The good news is they have four power plugs by default, a USB port, and
if you want to plug in your own video you can.

I don't know the specifics of the Sheraton
Hotel, but in all the places
in Montréal I visited they use the type B Socket.

Hi all,
I have to ask one of these naive (European) questions:
My colleagues and me, we have mostly adapters for the "B" socket type
(those with a round grounding). Can we use them in the Sheraton hotel – or
do we need the "A" socket type adapters (those sockets without an entry for
the round grounding)?
Thanks in advance,
cheers
Cornelius
