Product Features
Technical Overview
This power cord features an IEC 60320 C19 female connector on one end, which plugs into compatible PDUs, and a NEMA 5-15P male connector on the other end for connection to standard 120V AC outlets. The 3-pin design includes grounding for safety, and the 14-gauge wire ensures minimal voltage drop over the 10-foot span, supporting consistent power delivery.
The lockable mechanism secures the IEC C19 connection, reducing the risk of power interruptions due to loose cables. This is particularly valuable in environments with vibration or frequent maintenance. The cord is rated for 100V AC and 120V AC, making it suitable for use in regions with these standard voltages, and the 15A current rating aligns with common circuit breaker protections.

FAQ
What devices is this power cord designed to support?
This power cord is specifically designed to support Power Distribution Units (PDUs). It connects PDUs to standard wall outlets, enabling power distribution to multiple devices like servers, switches, and storage arrays in rack-mounted setups.
What are the connector types on this power cord?
One end has an IEC 60320 C19 female connector (3-pin), which plugs into PDUs, and the other end has a NEMA 5-15P male connector (3-pin), which connects to standard North American 120V AC wall outlets. This configuration is common for PDU power feeds.
What is the voltage and current rating of this cord?
The cord is rated for 100 V AC and 120 V AC, with a current rating of 15 A. This makes it suitable for use in regions with these standard voltages, supporting typical power requirements for IT equipment without overloading.
How does the lockable feature work on this power cord?
The lockable feature secures the IEC C19 connector to the PDU, preventing it from being accidentally pulled out. This is achieved through a locking mechanism that requires deliberate action to disconnect, enhancing reliability in environments where vibrations or movement might loosen standard connections.
What is the length of the power cord, and why is it important?
The cord is 10 feet (3.05 meters) long. This length provides sufficient reach for connecting PDUs to power outlets in rack environments, allowing for flexible placement of equipment and easier cable management without excessive slack or strain.
Is this power cord compatible with all PDUs?
This cord is compatible with PDUs that have an IEC C19 inlet. It is a standard connector type for higher-power PDUs in data centers. Always verify your PDU's input connector type to ensure compatibility before purchase.
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 100 V AC,120 V AC, which helps position the unit for the right load level and installation role.
