FAQ
What devices use an IEC 60320 C19 power inlet?
The IEC 60320 C19 inlet is commonly found on enterprise-grade equipment that draws higher current, such as rack-mounted servers, large network switches, power distribution units (PDUs), some UPS systems, and high-performance storage arrays. This C2G cord with a C19 female connector is designed to plug into those devices from a C20 power source.
What is the maximum power this cord can handle?
Based on its 250V and 20A ratings, this cord can handle up to 5000 watts (250V × 20A) of power delivery under ideal conditions. It is engineered to safely carry this load continuously, making it suitable for connecting equipment with substantial power requirements in IT infrastructure.
Is this power cord suitable for data center use?
Yes, this cord is well-suited for data center deployments. Its IEC 60320 C20 to C19 configuration, 250V/20A rating, and 6-foot length align with common data center power distribution practices for connecting PDUs to UPS outputs or powering high-draw servers, ensuring reliable connectivity in rack environments.
Can I use this cord to connect a PDU to a wall outlet?
No, this cord is not designed for direct connection to standard wall outlets. The IEC 60320 C20 male end is intended to plug into a C20 outlet, which is typically found on power distribution units, UPS outputs, or specific power sources in commercial settings. For wall outlets, a different cord with appropriate plug types would be required.
What does the 3-pin design provide?
The 3-pin design includes live, neutral, and ground conductors. The ground pin is crucial for safety, providing a path to earth to prevent electrical shock in case of a fault. This ensures the cord meets safety standards for grounded equipment in professional IT and power applications.
How does the cord length affect installation?
The 6-foot (1.83 m) length offers practical flexibility for rack installations, allowing connections between adjacent racks or within a rack without excessive slack. It helps maintain tidy cable management, supports proper airflow, and reduces trip hazards, making it a versatile choice for organized server rooms and data centers.
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.
