C20 to C13 Power Cords: Reliable and Versatile Connections
Introduction
In the world of data centers and high-density computing environments, efficient power distribution is crucial. C20 to C13 power cords have emerged as a reliable and versatile solution for connecting devices to power sources. These heavy-duty cables are designed to meet the demanding requirements of modern data centers, ensuring uninterrupted power delivery and easy cable management.
Understanding C20 and C13 Connectors
The C20 and C13 connectors are part of the IEC 60320 standard, which defines specifications for appliance couplers for industrial and household equipment. The C20 connector is a 2-pin plug commonly found on power distribution units (PDUs) and uninterruptible power supplies (UPSs). It is designed to handle higher currents, typically up to 16A or 20A, making it suitable for high-power applications.
On the other hand, the C13 connector is a 3-pin receptacle often used on computers, servers, and other devices that require power. It is rated for currents up to 15A and can safely handle the power requirements of most IT equipment.
Connectors and Specifications
C20 to C13 power cords feature the following connectors and specifications:
- Connector A: IEC-60320-C20 (plug)
- Connector B: IEC-60320-C13 (receptacle)
- Conductor: UL SJT 14 AWG x 3C (heavy-duty)
- Amp/Voltage Rating: 15A/250V
Applications and Benefits
C20 to C13 power cords are ideal for a wide range of applications, including:
- Data Centers: Connecting servers, storage arrays, and networking equipment to PDUs or UPSs.
