Power cord sets utilizing a C13 connector and an E interconnection plug are commonplace in data centers to provide power from a PDU (power distribution unit) to a server.C14 inlets are also rated at 10A/250VAC international and 15A/250VAC North America with a temperature rating of up to 70°C. Also known as appliance couplers, a connector and an inlet enable the use of standard inlets and country-specific cord sets. Way vertical PDU • Robust aluminium construction • 16x IEC-13 output power sockets • Modular IEC-14 plug input • Illuminated rocker on/ off switch • Integral grounding built into chassis • Ideal for vertical mounting in data and server enclosures • I. These patented design, IEC 60320 connectors have an internal locking mechanism which mates with and locks to any male C14 (inlet), to provide a simple way of securing a power cable to any electrical equipment. This allows manufacturers to produce the same appliance for many markets, where only the cord set has to be changed for a particular market.

This power cord is fully equipped with a UK BS1363 3 pin mains plug on one end and an IEC C13 type connector on the other that connects to the appliance. These IEC extension power cords are commonly used in data centres for providing connections between PDU (Power Distribution Unit) and UPS (Uninterruptible Power Supply) devices and equipment with a C14 input.These are usually un-fused (with the exception of C13 cords attached to BS 1363 plugs, which are always fused).

The standard uses the terms "male" and "female" only for individual pins and socket contacts, but in general usage they are also applied to the complete plugs and connectors. Designed to mitigate the risk of downtime due to disconnection • Prevents disconnection of critical power caused by accidental removal or vibration • Suitable . The general requirements for these items were incorporated into IEC 60320-1 and the standard sheets were moved to IEC 60320-3.

So, although they look similar, a 'real' kettle lead features a connector with a cut out on the top. Note: Cables with IEC C13 sockets such as this are sometimes known by the generic term 'kettle lead'. The C17/C18 coupler is often used in audio applications where a floating ground is maintained to eliminate hum caused by ground loops. Your use of pre-used packaging materials to save the environment was also appreciated, a thing we often do when mailing items to friends and relations but I have not seen this adopted sensibly by business. IEC C13 and C14 power cords or IEC leads are for use with IEC Class I appliances and are mainly used in computer equipment but can also be used in some domestic and commercial appliances.Ready made cables are also available, terminated to standard IEC male plugs, bare ends, UK 13A and SCHUKO CE7/7 (right-angle) plugs. The standards define the mechanical, electrical and thermal requirements and safety goals of power couplers.
