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
