FAQ
What devices is this C14 to C15 power cord compatible with?
This cord is designed for connecting equipment with C15 male connectors to power sources with C14 female receptacles. Common compatible devices include servers, network switches, UPS units, and power distribution units (PDUs) that require higher-temperature rated connections. The C14 male end plugs into standard power outlets or PDUs, while the C15 female end accepts devices with C15 male plugs.
What does P-Lock compatibility mean for this power cord?
P-Lock compatibility means the connectors feature a locking mechanism that secures the connection against accidental disconnection. This is particularly valuable in rack-mounted environments where vibration from fans or equipment movement could loosen standard connectors. The locking feature helps maintain reliable power delivery to critical IT equipment.
What are the electrical ratings of this AddOn power cord?
This power cord is rated for 250 volts at 15 amps, with a 14 AWG wire gauge. These ratings indicate it can handle substantial electrical loads safely, making it suitable for powering servers, UPS systems, and other high-draw IT equipment. The 14 AWG gauge minimizes voltage drop over the 8-foot length for consistent power delivery.
Why does this cord have a high-temperature rating?
The high-temperature rating ensures the cord can safely operate in environments where heat buildup occurs, such as server rooms or enclosed racks with limited airflow. This rating means the insulation and connectors maintain their integrity and safety when exposed to elevated temperatures that might degrade standard power cords.
What is the advantage of the blue PVC SJT jacket?
The blue PVC Service Junior Thermoplastic (SJT) jacket provides both durability and visual identification. The SJT material offers resistance to abrasion, oils, and chemicals while remaining flexible for easy routing. The blue color allows quick visual identification in complex cable management setups, simplifying installation, troubleshooting, and maintenance in IT environments.
Is this power cord suitable for rack-mounted installations?
Yes, this power cord is well-suited for rack-mounted installations. The 8-foot length provides flexibility for routing within standard server racks, while the P-Lock compatibility ensures secure connections that resist vibration-induced disconnection.
