Plug-Lock Inserts (C14 power cord to C13 outlet), Blue, 100 pack (PLC13BL)

Description:

The Tripp Lite PLC13BL Plug‑Lock Inserts are designed to secure standard IEC C14 power cord connections to C13 outlets, preventing accidental disconnections that can disrupt critical equipment operation. These blue inserts are made to reinforce the interface between a C14 plug and a C13 receptacle — an area where loose fitting can otherwise lead to power interruptions during maintenance or routine access. They offer a simple, non‑intrusive retention solution without requiring proprietary cables or locking outlets. Each pack includes 100 blue inserts, and the universal design ensures compatibility with all standard IEC60320 C14 and C13 equipment connections. A pull tab on each insert also allows safe removal from powered outlets.

Key details:

• Purpose: Lock and reinforce the connection between a C14 plug and a C13 inlet to prevent accidental unplugging during maintenance or vibration.
• Compatibility: Works with standard IEC 60320 C14 plugs and C13 outlets — no special PDUs or cables needed.
• Quantity: 100 inserts in a single pack, all blue colored.
• Installation: A simple push‑on insert that clips over the plug to strengthen the retention in the socket.
• Use Case: Ideal for securing connections in racks or behind equipment where cords may get bumped.
• Build: Typically nylon with flame‑resistant rating (e.g., PA66 UL94 V2).
• Manufacturer: Tripp Lite (part of Eaton).

Typical applications:

• Server room power connections
• UPS output ports
• Network switches & rack PDUs
• Any critical equipment where inadvertent unplugging must be avoided
