Are you convinced of the benefits of sleeping connected to the Earth and are you considering purchasing a grounding sheet? Excellent decision! However, once you get started, practical questions arise: what size sheet should I choose for my bed and what type of adapter is compatible with the sockets in my country? Don't worry, this guide is here to help you make the right choice.
Choosing the right size for your grounding sheet
The size of your grounding sheet is essential to ensure optimal comfort and sufficient surface area during your sleep. Grounding sheets are generally designed to fit standard mattress sizes.

- 140 x 200 cm: Perfect for a standard double bed.
- 160 x 200 cm: Designed for "Queen Size" beds.
- 180 x 200 cm: Suitable for "King Size" beds.
- 200 x 200 cm: Suitable for very large square beds.
- 200 x 220 cm: Ideal for "Super King Size" beds or Californian beds.
Tip: Measure your mattress accurately before ordering to ensure you choose the best size. A well-fitting sheet will ensure a better grounding experience and increased comfort.
Which adapter should you choose to ground your bed?
The adapter is the key component that connects your sheet to the grounding socket of your electrical installation. Choosing the right type of adapter according to your country's electrical standards is crucial to ensure a safe and efficient connection.
Types of adapters available from Faraday Forrest:
- EU (Europe) Adapter: Compatible with most outlets in continental Europe (France, Germany, Italy, Spain, etc.), using type E or F plugs. This adapter is designed to plug only into the earth pin of the wall outlet, without passing electrical current.
- UK (United Kingdom) Adapter: Specifically designed for Type G sockets, common in the UK, Ireland, Malta, etc. It also connects to the earth pin only.
- US (United States) Adapter: Fits Type A or B outlets used in the United States, Canada, Mexico, and other North and Central American countries. Like the others, it ensures a secure ground connection.
Important tip: Always check the type of wall outlet in your home before choosing your adapter. Using the wrong adapter could prevent the ground connection or, in the worst case, pose a risk. Rest assured, grounding adapters are designed to isolate the live and neutral conductors, connecting only the ground wire, ensuring safe use.
