Can I use a non polarized power cord on a polarized plug?
No, polarized electrical products (with one blade of the plug being wider than the other) should be used only with polarized or grounded extension cords. Using a non-polarized power cord on a polarized plug can create a safety hazard and increase the risk of electrical shock or fire. Always ensure you use the correct type of power cord for your device.
What does polarized power cord mean?
A polarized power cord has one prong that is wider at the tip than the other. Similarly, polarized wall outlets also have one slot that is wider than the other, designed to admit the wider prong. The wider prong/slot is intended to be wired to the neutral side of the mains, ensuring proper flow of electric current and reducing the risk of electrical shock.
What is power cord types C7?
The IEC-C7 (also known as the "figure-8" or "two-pin") power cord is commonly used on household appliances like portable stereos, shavers, and laptop computers. It features a polarized connector with one flat side and one round side, ensuring proper orientation when plugging into the device.
What is the difference between C7 and C8 connectors?
C7 and C8 refer to the male and female versions of the same IEC connector shape. C7 is the male connector, while C8 is the female counterpart. Both have the same shape but are designed to mate with each other, with the C7 plug fitting into the C8 inlet. This allows for a secure and compatible connection on devices that require this type of polarized power cord.
Which side of a polarized plug is hot?
On a polarized plug, the narrower blade or prong should be connected to the hot wire, while the wider blade connects to the neutral. In North America, the hot prong is usually gold-colored, and the neutral prong is silver-colored. Following this standard wiring convention ensures proper electrical flow and safety.
