FAQ
What devices use C14 male to C15 female power cables?
This cable configuration connects equipment with C15 female input receptacles to power sources with C14 male outlets. Common applications include linking servers, networking gear, and certain UPS systems to power distribution units in data center racks. The C15 connector typically handles higher temperature applications than standard C13 connections.
What is the maximum power capacity of this cable?
The AddOn ADD-C142C1514AWG4FTBE power cable is rated for 250 volts at 15 amps, providing up to 3,750 watts of power capacity. The 14AWG wire gauge ensures efficient power transmission over the 4-foot length with minimal voltage drop, making it suitable for equipment with moderate to high power requirements.
Can this cable be used in rack-mounted installations?
Yes, this power cord is designed for rack-mounted environments. The 4-foot length accommodates typical distances between power distribution units and equipment in standard 19-inch racks. The blue color provides visual differentiation in cable management systems, and the durable construction withstands the physical demands of data center installations.
What safety certifications does this power cable have?
This AddOn power cable complies with Restriction of Hazardous Substances (RoHS), Waste Electrical and Electronic Equipment Directive (WEEE), and Registration, Evaluation, Authorization and Restriction of Chemicals (REACH) environmental standards. While not TAA compliant, these certifications ensure the cable meets international environmental and safety requirements for commercial use.
How does the 14AWG gauge affect performance?
The 14AWG (American Wire Gauge) specification indicates thicker copper conductors compared to smaller gauge numbers. This provides lower electrical resistance, reducing voltage drop over the cable length and improving power delivery efficiency. The thicker wires also handle the 15A current rating with better heat dissipation, supporting continuous operation in demanding environments.
What warranty coverage does this power cable include?
AddOn provides a 1-year limited warranty for the ADD-C142C1514AWG4FTBE power cable. This warranty covers defects in materials and workmanship under normal use conditions. The warranty period begins from the date of purchase and provides assurance of product quality and reliability for business IT deployments.
What power capacity is listed for this UPS?
Power specifications help show where the unit fits best, including the type of load level, electrical environment, and backup role it is intended to support. These are usually the most decision-critical facts in a UPS or power-protection comparison.
What voltage details are listed?
The listed power specification is 250 V,100 V, which helps position the unit for the right load level and installation role.
