Product Features
Technical Overview
This power cord utilizes a C20 male connector on one end and a C19 female connector on the other, creating a direct bridge between compatible power sources and equipment. The 12 AWG copper conductors within the cord minimize voltage drop and heat generation, maintaining efficient power transmission across the full 3-foot length.
The polyvinyl chloride (PVC) and Service Junior Thermoplastic (SJT) dual-material jacket offers excellent abrasion resistance and flexibility, with the SJT rating indicating suitability for junior hard service applications. With an approximate weight of 2.40 ounces, this cord provides substantial durability without excessive bulk.

FAQ
What types of equipment use C20 to C19 power connections?
C20 to C19 power cords typically connect power distribution units (PDUs) to server racks, network switches, storage arrays, and other data center equipment. They're also used with high-power industrial devices, medical equipment, and telecommunications infrastructure that require secure, high-current power delivery.
How does the P-Lock feature improve connection security?
The P-Lock compatibility ensures the connectors remain securely mated even in environments with vibration, movement, or accidental tugging. This locking mechanism prevents accidental disconnection that could cause equipment downtime or data loss, making it particularly valuable in data centers and industrial settings where power stability is critical.
What are the advantages of 12 AWG wiring in this power cord?
12 AWG (American Wire Gauge) wiring provides thicker conductors that reduce electrical resistance, minimize voltage drop over distance, and handle higher current loads safely. This gauge supports the full 20A rating at 250V while generating less heat than thinner wires, ensuring efficient power transmission and enhanced safety margins for connected equipment.
Is this power cord suitable for outdoor or harsh environment use?
While the PVC/SJT jacket provides good durability and resistance to abrasion, oils, and general wear, this cord is designed primarily for indoor industrial and data center applications. The SJT (Service Junior Thermoplastic) rating indicates suitability for demanding service conditions but doesn't include specific weatherproofing or UV resistance for prolonged outdoor exposure.
What does the 250V/20A rating mean for my equipment?
The 250V rating indicates the maximum voltage the cord can safely handle, while the 20A rating specifies the maximum continuous current capacity. This means the cord can deliver up to 5,000 watts of power (250V × 20A) to connected equipment, making it suitable for powering multiple servers, high-performance switches, or other power-hungry devices within a single rack or enclosure.
How does the 3-foot length compare to other power cord options?
The 3-foot length provides optimal reach for typical rack-mounted equipment installations where the power source (PDU) is mounted vertically alongside the equipment. This length minimizes excess cable that can create clutter while providing enough slack for proper cable management, service access, and equipment movement within standard 19-inch or 23-inch rack configurations.
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.
