FAQ
What devices is this power cord compatible with?
This cord is designed for equipment with IEC320C19 inlets, typically found on servers, network switches, and some PDUs. It connects these devices to power sources with IEC320C20 outlets, commonly used in data center PDUs and high-power distribution systems.
What is the maximum power rating of this cord?
The cord is rated for 250 volts AC at 20 amps maximum current. This translates to a power capacity of up to 5,000 watts (250V × 20A), making it suitable for high-power enterprise equipment that requires substantial electrical delivery.
Why is 12AWG wire gauge important for this application?
12AWG (American Wire Gauge) refers to the thickness of the copper conductors inside the cord. Thicker 12-gauge wire reduces electrical resistance over the 10-foot length, minimizing voltage drop and heat generation when carrying the full 20-amp load. This ensures efficient power delivery to connected equipment.
What does the IEC320C20 to IEC320C19 configuration mean?
IEC320C20 is a 3-pin male connector that plugs into power distribution units or outlets. IEC320C19 is a 3-pin female connector that attaches to servers, switches, or other equipment. This specific configuration is standard for connecting high-power devices to PDUs in data center environments.
Is this power cord suitable for rack-mounted equipment?
Yes, this cord is ideal for rack-mounted deployments. The IEC320C20 to IEC320C19 configuration is commonly used in server racks, and the 10-foot length provides flexibility for cable management within standard rack enclosures. The white color also helps with visual organization in rack environments.
What environmental standards does this cord meet?
This power cord complies with Restriction of Hazardous Substances (RoHS) and Registration, Evaluation, Authorization and Restriction of Chemicals (REACH) regulations. These standards restrict specific hazardous materials in electrical equipment, ensuring the cord meets environmental and safety requirements for commercial use.
