Frequently Asked Questions
Are C13 and C15 interchangeable?
The C15 cable connector is backwards compatible with a C13, allowing a C15 plug to connect to a C14 socket. However, a C13 connector will not physically fit into an inlet designed for a C15 due to the small notch on the C15.
Are C13 and C14 the same?
While the pin arrangement of a C14 plug is identical to that of a C13 power cord, they are not fully interchangeable on every device. The C14 plug will fit into a C13 socket and vice versa, but their intended applications may differ.
What plugs into a C13?
The C13 plug is commonly found on power cables with a mains plug (e.g., Type F Schuko) at the other end. It plugs into a device with a C14 socket. C13 to C14 extension cables are also widely used to power devices like monitors or PCs from power distribution units.
How can you tell C13 from C15?
The key difference between C13 and C15 connectors is the notch. The C15 has a distinct groove opposite the grounding pin, which is absent on the C13. This notch dictates their compatibility with different inlets.
What is the difference between C13 and C15 sockets?
The main distinction between C13 and C15 sockets lies in their temperature rating. C15 connectors are designed for higher temperature devices like electric kettles, networking closets, server rooms, and PoE switches with higher wattage power supplies. Shielded C13 power cords can also help reduce noise interference in such environments.
What is the difference between C13, C14, and C15?
While C13 and C14 connectors are commonly used for computer and IT equipment, the C15 is designed for high-temperature conditions with a rated voltage up to 120°C. It is noted that a C15 connector also fits into C14 inlets, while a C13 cannot fit into C16 inlets.
