Credit card and top up electricity

in Credit cards
Hey, this is hopefully a stupid question, but I thought I would ask just in case. I’m on holiday and the house we’re staying in has a electricity prepay meter (Electric Ireland - our holiday is in NI). I just bought a code for a £20 top up and I used my Nationwide Select Credit Card to do this.
It’s only later that I had a weird memory in the back of my mind - since this is to get credit, does this technically count as a cash advance rather than a regular purchase? Nothing I see on the nationwide suggests so, but would want to make sure!

Sorry if it’s a silly question!
