The IEC-60320-C14 to IEC-60320-C13 power cord is a commonly used cable for extending the reach of existing power cords or connecting various electronic devices.
Components
- IEC-60320-C14 plug: This is a three-prong male connector found on various electronics like computers, monitors, printers, and some kitchen appliances. It is rated for 10 amps and 250 volts AC.
- IEC-60320-C13 connector: This is a three-prong female connector commonly found on power distribution units (PDUs), UPS systems, and surge protectors. It is also rated for 10 amps and 250 volts AC.
- Cable: The cable connecting the two plugs is typically 18-gauge or 16-gauge wire and can vary in length depending on your needs.
Applications
This type of power cord is frequently used for:
- Extending the reach of existing power cords: If your device’s built-in cord doesn’t reach the outlet, this extension cord can bridge the gap conveniently.
- Connecting devices to PDUs, UPS systems, or surge protectors: These power management solutions often use C13 outlets, and this cord allows you to connect your devices securely.
- Creating a daisy-chain power connection: By connecting multiple cords together, you can power several devices from a single outlet, but ensure the total power draw doesn’t exceed the cord’s rating.
