Frequently Asked Questions
What is the difference between a locking C13 and standard C13 connector?
A locking C13 connector features a mechanical latch that securely grips the power supply inlet, preventing accidental disconnection. This is critical in server environments where unexpected power loss can cause data corruption or system downtime. Standard C13 connectors rely on friction alone and can be dislodged more easily.
Can I use this computer power cord with my UPS or PDU?
Yes, this NEMA 5-15P to locking C13 cord is compatible with most uninterruptible power supplies (UPS), power distribution units (PDUs), and server equipment that feature a C13 inlet. The locking connector ensures a secure connection in high-vibration or high-traffic environments.
Is this heavy-duty power cord suitable for data center use?
Absolutely. The 14 AWG copper conductors, 15A rating, and locking C13 connector make this cord ideal for data centers, server rooms, and enterprise IT installations. The 2 ft. length is perfect for compact rack-mounted equipment configurations.
What does 14 AWG mean for this power cord?
14 AWG (American Wire Gauge) refers to the diameter of the copper conductors inside the cord. Thicker gauge (lower number) means better current-carrying capacity and lower voltage drop. 14 AWG is the standard for 15A rated power cords and provides reliable performance for typical server and workstation applications.
