Wholesale C20 to 2xC13 Y Splitter Power Cord 3Pin 16AWG Power Extension Cable for Data Center
1. Basic Definition
The C20 to 2×C13 power cable is a one-to-two (Y-type) power distribution cable used to expand a single high-power C20 interface into two standard C13 interfaces. It is suitable for scenarios where two devices need to be powered from a high-current power supply (such as PDU/UPS) at the same time.
Output end (C20 male): connect to a high-power power supply (such as cabinet PDU, UPS).
Input end (2×C13 female): power two standard 10A devices (such as servers, switches).
2. Interface specifications (IEC 60320 standard)
| Interface type | Shape | Rated current | Applicable voltage | Matching interface |
| C20 (male) | Standard 3 pins | 16A~20A | 250V AC | C19 (famale) |
| C13 (female) | Square, 3 holes | 10A | 250V AC | C14 (male) |
Key differences:
C20 is used for high power (16A~20A), C13 is used for ordinary equipment (10A).
This cable allows power to be distributed from a single 20A interface to two 10A devices (total current ≤16A).
3. Cable structure and electrical parameters
Conductor: Oxygen-free copper (OFC), reduces impedance and heat generation.
Insulation layer: Flame-retardant PVC (temperature resistant 105°C).
Sheath: Flexible and wear-resistant, suitable for wiring in computer rooms.
Grounding protection: 3-core design (L/N/PE) to ensure safety.
Specifications:
| Parameters | Specifications |
| Output interface | C20 (male) |
| Input interface | 2×C13 (female) |
| Rated voltage | 250V AC |
| Output rated current | 16A (single-channel maximum) |
| Input branch current Each C13 | 10A (total load ≤16A) |
| Wire diameter | Main cable: 3×1.5mm² (16A) or 3×2.5mm² (20A) |
| Certification standard | UL/IEC 60320/CE/RoHS |
4. Main advantages
High power distribution: Split 20A power supply into two 10A outputs to optimize cabinet space.
Safe load: Built-in overcurrent protection (premium model) to avoid single-channel overload.
Plug and play: No additional adapter is required, directly connect PDU and equipment.
Wide compatibility: Suitable for mainstream servers, switches, and storage devices.
5. Typical application scenarios
Data center: Power two 1U servers simultaneously from a high-power PDU.
Network cabinet: connect switches + NAS devices to reduce cable clutter.
Industrial control: distribute power to PLC and industrial computers.
Broadcasting equipment: support multiple audio and video devices to share a single power interface.
6. Precautions for use
Current limit: The total load must not exceed the rated current of the C20 end (such as 16A).
Equipment matching: Only applicable to 10A devices (C13 interface), and cannot be connected to higher power devices.
Heat dissipation management: Check the cable temperature when running at high load for a long time.
Certification selection: give priority to UL/CE certified products to avoid the risk of fire caused by inferior branch lines.
7. Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ)
Q1: Can two 15A devices be connected?
Not feasible! The upper limit of the C13 interface is 10A, and overload may cause melting or fire.
Q2: What is the difference with C19 to 2×C14?
C19/C20 is a high-power interface (16A~20A), C13/C14 is a 10A interface, and they cannot be mixed.
Q3: Does it support longer cables (such as 5m)?
It can be customized, but the wire diameter needs to be thickened (such as 3×2.5mm²) for long distances to reduce voltage drop.
Summary
C20 to 2×C13 power cable is an efficient solution for high-power power distribution, suitable for scenarios where multiple devices need to be powered from a single PDU interface. When purchasing, you must strictly follow the current matching principle to ensure safe operation.
