FAQ
What is the maximum current this power cord can handle?
The Tripp Lite by Eaton P036-006 power cord is rated for 20 amps at 250 volts AC. This current capacity makes it suitable for powering servers, UPS systems, and other equipment requiring high-current connections through C20 inlets. The 12AWG conductor gauge ensures safe operation at this rated capacity over the full 6-foot length.
What types of equipment use C20 connectors?
C20 connectors are commonly found on servers, UPS systems, power distribution units (PDUs), and some industrial equipment that require higher current capacity than standard C13/C14 connections. This power cord with C19 to C20 configuration allows you to extend power to such equipment when the existing cord length is insufficient for proper installation.
Is this power cord suitable for data center use?
Yes, this power cord is designed for data center and server room environments. The 20A rating, heavy-duty 12AWG construction, and standardized C19 to C20 connectors make it appropriate for extending power connections between PDUs and equipment in rack-mounted configurations. Its RoHS compliance and professional black finish are well-suited for organized data center deployments.
What environmental standards does this cable meet?
This power cord is RoHS (Restriction of Hazardous Substances) compliant, meaning it meets European Union regulations limiting specific hazardous materials in electrical and electronic equipment. This compliance ensures the cable can be used in environments with strict environmental requirements and demonstrates Eaton's commitment to producing environmentally responsible products.
What warranty comes with this power cord?
The Tripp Lite by Eaton P036-006 comes with a lifetime limited warranty. This warranty reflects the durable construction and long-term reliability expected from industrial-grade power cords. For specific warranty terms and conditions, refer to the manufacturer's documentation available through the provided product brochure link.
Can this cable be used to extend existing power cords?
Yes, this is specifically designed as an extension cable with C19 to C20 connectors. It can extend the reach between a power source with a C19 outlet (typically found on PDUs or UPS systems) and equipment with a C20 inlet. The 6-foot length provides additional flexibility for equipment placement while maintaining the full 20A current capacity.
