Product Features
Technical Overview
This power cord utilizes C20 male and C19 female connectors, following IEC 60320 standards for international compatibility in power distribution systems. The 12 AWG copper conductors minimize voltage drop over the 8-foot length, maintaining efficient power transmission for high-current applications up to 20 amps.
The P-Lock feature adds an extra layer of security by preventing accidental disconnection through a positive locking mechanism. This is particularly valuable in environments where vibration, movement, or accidental contact could compromise power continuity to critical equipment.
This section brings together practical product details such as First End Connector Type, First End Connector Detail, Second End Connector Type, Voltage Rating, so buyers can judge configuration, deployment fit, and day-to-day suitability with less guesswork.
A strong technical summary explains how the product's interfaces, hardware profile, and operating characteristics work together in real deployment. Buyers often need this context to confirm compatibility with existing devices, expected performance in daily use, and whether installation will be straightforward for IT staff or end users.

FAQ
What types of equipment use C20 to C19 power connections?
C20 to C19 power cords are commonly used to connect power distribution units (PDUs) to servers, network switches, storage arrays, and other rack-mounted equipment in data centers and server rooms. These connectors follow IEC 60320 standards and are designed for higher current applications up to 20 amps, making them suitable for enterprise-grade computing equipment that requires stable, high-current power delivery.
What does the P-Lock feature provide?
The P-Lock feature adds a positive locking mechanism that prevents accidental disconnection of the power cord. This is particularly valuable in environments with vibration, movement, or accidental contact that could compromise power continuity. By securing the connection, P-Lock helps maintain uninterrupted power to critical equipment, reducing the risk of downtime in data centers, industrial settings, and other mission-critical applications.
Is this power cord suitable for 240V applications?
Yes, this AddOn power cord is rated for 250V applications, making it fully compatible with 240V power systems commonly used in data centers and industrial environments. The 250V rating provides a safety margin above typical 240V operating voltages, ensuring reliable performance and compliance with electrical safety standards for high-voltage power distribution.
What are the advantages of 12 AWG wire gauge?
The 12 AWG wire gauge provides thicker copper conductors that reduce electrical resistance, resulting in less voltage drop over the 8-foot cable length. This ensures more efficient power transmission to connected equipment, particularly important for high-current applications up to 20 amps. The larger gauge also generates less heat under load, contributing to safer operation and longer cable life in continuous-use environments.
Can this cord be used in outdoor or wet environments?
While the PVC SJT jacket provides good resistance to abrasion, oil, and moisture, this power cord is designed for indoor use in controlled environments like data centers, server rooms, and industrial facilities. The connectors are not rated for outdoor or wet location use. For outdoor applications, specifically rated outdoor power cords with appropriate weatherproofing would be required to ensure safety and compliance with electrical codes.
What does the blue color indicate for cable management?
The bright blue color provides clear visual identification in complex cable management systems, making it easier to trace specific power connections during installation, maintenance, or troubleshooting. Color-coded cables help reduce errors in dense rack environments where multiple similar-looking cables might be present. This visual differentiation streamlines cable management and improves overall system reliability by making power connections more easily identifiable.
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, which helps position the unit for the right load level and installation role.
