FAQ
What devices are compatible with this C19 to C20 power cord?
This power cord connects power distribution units with C19 outlets to equipment with C20 inlets, typically found on servers, network switches, storage arrays, and other high-power computing devices. It's designed for equipment requiring more power than standard C13/C14 connections can provide.
What is the maximum power this cord can safely deliver?
With a rating of 230 volts AC at 10 amps, this power cord can safely deliver up to 2300 watts of power. The 12 AWG wire gauge ensures efficient power transmission with minimal voltage drop over the 7-foot length.
Why is this power cord blue in color?
The blue color-coded jacket helps technicians quickly identify this power cord in data center and server room environments. Color coding is a common practice in professional IT settings to distinguish between different power circuits, voltage levels, or equipment types for easier maintenance and troubleshooting.
What environmental standards does this power cord meet?
This power cord is environmentally friendly and complies with Restriction of Hazardous Substances (RoHS) and Waste Electrical and Electronic Equipment Directive (WEEE) standards. These regulations limit the use of specific hazardous materials in electrical equipment and establish requirements for proper disposal and recycling.
How does the 12 AWG gauge affect performance compared to thinner cables?
The 12 AWG (American Wire Gauge) specification indicates thicker copper conductors than common 14 or 16 AWG power cords. Thicker conductors have lower electrical resistance, which reduces voltage drop over distance and minimizes heat generation during operation, resulting in more efficient power delivery to connected equipment.
What warranty coverage does this power cord include?
This AddOn power cord comes with a 1-year limited warranty that covers defects in materials and workmanship. The warranty provides assurance of product quality and reliability for business IT deployments where consistent power connectivity is essential for operational continuity.
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 230 V AC, which helps position the unit for the right load level and installation role.
