Are AC power cords universal?

Not necessarily. Each device has specific power requirements, so it's essential to use the correct cord. Check the device's label or manual for voltage and current ratings to match the power cord properly. Most AC/DC adapters are not universal and can only be used to power compatible devices. However, some models are designed to work as replacement chargers for a wide range of devices. For more information, visit our Universal AC Power Cords page.

Are all 3 prong AC power cords the same?

Yes, they are all IEC cables and they are interchangeable. Just make sure that devices that draw a lot of current, such as power amps, have cords with heavier gauge wire. It is sometimes hard to tell because it is just the rubber/plastic jacket that is thicker. However, it's important to note that you won't be grounded and you could potentially get shocked if the extension cord touches water or something wet. So, while it's technically okay to use a three-prong extension cord on a two-prong appliance, it's extremely dangerous.

What is the name of the universal power cord?

C13/C14 is also called a Universal Power Cord, being the current standard for TVs and desktop computers. Some smaller devices, like older laptop power supplies, may have a C13/C14 but for the most part, these smaller devices now use downsized options like C5/C6. Our Universal AC Power Cords feature C13 connectors on one end, compatible with standard US outlets.

How do you know if a power cord is compatible?

In summary, an AC adapter is compatible with your device if:

They have the same voltage
They have the same polarity
The adapter's output current is equal to or greater than the device's input current
The adapter connector fits the input power port
