Heavy-Duty PDU Power Cord, C13 to C14 – 15A, 250V, 14 AWG, 3 ft. (0.91 m), Black-P005-003

Heavy-Duty PDU Power Cord, C13 to C14 – 15A, 250V, 14 AWG, 3 ft. (0.91 m), Black-P005-003

Product Overview

This is a heavy‑duty power extension cable designed for professional and data‑center environments. It’s commonly used to extend or replace standard IEC power connections between power distribution units (PDUs), uninterruptible power supplies (UPSs), and equipment like servers or networking gear.

Key Specifications

• Connectors: IEC 60320 C14 male → C13 female
  (male plugs into a supply like a PDU/UPS outlet; female feeds the device)
• Current rating: 15 A
• Voltage rating: Up to 250 V
• Cable gauge: 14 AWG — thicker wire capable of handling higher power with less voltage drop than thinner consumer leads
• Length: 3 ft (≈ 0.91 m) — helps reduce cable clutter while giving flexibility in positioning gear
• Jacket type: SJT PVC (flexible, durable)
• Color: Typically black (also available in other colors for rack labeling)
• Certifications: UL Listed, CSA certified, RoHS compliant

Typical Uses

This cord is intended for powering or extending power to devices with IEC C13 inlets from a UPS, PDU, or similar IEC C14 outlet. It’s especially suited for:

• Servers and rack gear
• Network switches and routers
• UPS units
• Monitors and other higher‑power peripherals
  All without using thin consumer power cords, thanks to the heavier 14 AWG construction.

Connector Notes

• IEC 60320 C14 is the inlet that usually plugs into PDUs/UPS outlets.
• IEC 60320 C13 is the receptacle that feeds equipment.
  These connectors are standard in data centers and professional power setups worldwide. They’re sometimes also called IEC‑320 connectors.
