What is a power cable?

Power cables can be defined as any lead which provides power from a mains outlet or wall socket to a device or appliance such as laptops or power supplies. A reliable and durable power lead is essential to maintaining a consistent electrical connection. Found sparingly within any home or workplace, these cables are a necessity for any standard electronic application.

What types of power cables are there?

These RS PRO power leads are unterminated or C13. But there are various types available throughout the range, with euro or UK 3 pin plugs. As an example, some types of different connectors you will find are:

• IEC C19/C20
• C7 and C8 (figure 8)
• IEC power and extension cables

Warning

The free end of all non-terminated cable assemblies must be terminated before inserting the mains plug into a live socket
