Frequently Asked Questions
What is a P-Lock C14 connector and why does it matter?
The P-Lock C14 connector features a locking mechanism that securely engages with compatible PDU outlets, preventing accidental disconnection during equipment operation. This is critical in data centers where unexpected power loss can cause downtime and data corruption.
Are these PDU power cords compatible with standard C13 outlets?
Yes, the C13 connector end is standard IEC-320-C13, compatible with virtually all computer and server power supplies. The P-Lock C14 end connects to Eaton PDUs and other compatible power distribution units with P-Lock outlets.
How many devices can I power with a 15A rated cord?
A 15A cord can safely support multiple devices as long as total power draw doesn't exceed 15 amps (3,750W at 250V). Most servers and network switches draw 3-8 amps individually, allowing multiple connections per cord in typical rack configurations.
Why choose a 6-pack of PDU power cords?
Six-packs reduce per-unit cost, ensure consistent cable quality across your infrastructure, and provide spare cords for maintenance or equipment replacement without emergency reordering.
