FAQs
What are standard NEMA and IEC power cords used for?
Standard NEMA and IEC power cords are used to connect equipment to AC power sources across a wide range of connector configurations. They are available with NEMA 1-15, 5-15, 5-20, 6-20, L5-20, and L6-20 configurations, along with IEC C5, C7, C13, C14, C15, C19, C20, and C21 connectors, supporting indoor and outdoor power connection requirements for IT, networking, and industrial equipment.
What connector configurations are available for IEC power cords?
IEC power cords are available in configurations including 1-15 to C7, C14 to C15, L6-20 to C13, L5-20 to N5-20, C20 to C13, C14 to C19, and 5-15 to C13, among other options. This range supports connections between NEMA wall outlets and IEC equipment inlets, as well as IEC-to-IEC connections for servers, PDUs, and networking equipment.
What AWG sizes are available for NEMA and IEC power cables?
NEMA and IEC power cables are offered in 10 AWG, 12 AWG, 14 AWG, 15 AWG, and 18 AWG sizes. Conductor gauge selection affects the current-carrying capacity of the cord, so specifiers should match AWG size to the power draw and load requirements of the connected equipment.
Can power cords be used outdoors?
Yes, power cords are available with an Outdoor (PVC) jacket material designed for outdoor installation environments, in addition to standard PVC jacketing for indoor use. This allows customers to select the jacket type suited to the installation environment, whether indoor equipment rooms or outdoor power runs.
What power draw ratings are available for power cords?
Power cords are available with power draw options of 10 Amps, 15 Amps, and 20 Amps. Selecting the correct amperage rating ensures the power cord matches the electrical load of the connected device, which is important for data center, networking, and industrial equipment installations.
What lengths do NEMA and IEC power cords come in?
NEMA and IEC power cords are available in lengths from 1 FT to 100 FT, including 1, 1.5, 2, 3, 4, 6, 8, 10, 12, 15, 25, 50, and 100 FT options, with custom lengths also available. This range supports short equipment connections as well as longer runs across equipment rooms and data centers.
What colors are available for standard power cords?
Standard NEMA and IEC power cords are available in black, blue, white, green, red, and yellow. Color options allow for visual differentiation of power connections and circuits during installation, maintenance, and troubleshooting in racks and equipment rooms.
