250V 10A Red C13 to C14 Power Extension Cable Male Female 3 Core Power Cord for Computer
1. Basic definition and structure
1.1 Interface type
C13 connector (IEC 60320 standard):
Type: Female, 3-pin design (live wire, neutral wire, ground wire).
Dimensions: Opening size is about 15.5mm × 9.5mm, concave structure.
C14 connector (IEC 60320 standard):
Type: Male, 3-pin design, paired with C13.
Dimensions: Plug size is about 16mm × 9mm, convex structure, usually installed at the power input end of the device.
1.2 Cable structure
Conductor: Multi-strand copper wire (cross-sectional area 0.75mm², 1.0mm² or 1.5mm²), supporting 10A~15A current.
Insulation layer: PVC or rubber sheath, temperature resistance is usually 70°C~105°C.
Shielding: Ordinary models are unshielded, and industrial-grade optional shielding layer (anti-electromagnetic interference).
2. Electrical parameters and standards
2.1 Rated performance
Voltage: 250V AC (internationally accepted), some models support higher voltage (such as 400V industrial use).
Current:
Standard type: 10A (corresponding to 0.75mm² wire diameter).
High power type: 15A (corresponding to 1.5mm² wire diameter).
Power:
10A × 250V = 2500W (home/office equipment).
15A × 250V = 3750W (server/industrial equipment).
2.2 Safety certification
International standards: IEC 60320 (general), UL 498 (North America), CCC (China).
Safety marking: CE, RoHS, REACH (environmental protection requirements).
3. Typical application scenarios
3.1 Information technology equipment
Computers and servers: connect to power supplies (such as desktop power supplies, server cabinet PDUs).
Network equipment: switches, routers, UPS power supplies.
3.2 Home and office appliances
Monitors/printers: standard power interface.
Home appliances: some microwave ovens, rice cookers (current matching needs to be confirmed).
3.3 Industrial equipment
Medical instruments: comply with IEC 60601-1 medical electrical safety standards.
Industrial machinery: high-power models (15A) are used in motor control cabinets.
4. Advantages and selection points
4.1 Core advantages
Strong versatility: standard interface widely used worldwide.
Safe and reliable: grounding design prevents leakage risks.
Flexible adaptation: optional cable length (0.5m~5m common).
4.2 Selection considerations
1. Current demand:
- 10A (conventional equipment) vs 15A (high-power equipment).
2. Cable length:
- Too long may cause voltage drop (≤3m is recommended for high current).
3. Environmental requirements:
- High temperature resistance (silicone sheath), oil resistance (industrial grade PVC).
4. Certification and compliance:
- Medical/industrial scenarios require special certification (such as UL 60601).
5. FAQ
Q1: Can C13 and C14 be mixed with other IEC interfaces?
No, C13 is only compatible with C14 and cannot be mixed with C15/C16 (high temperature type).
Q2: How to distinguish high-quality cables?
Look at the logo: The cable body is printed with a certification mark (such as UL E-number).
Test flame retardancy: Use a lighter to test the flame retardancy of the sheath (high-quality cables should be self-extinguishing).
Q3: Can it be used in 220V and 110V systems?
Yes, but make sure that the current does not exceed the rated value (for example, the power of a 10A cable drops to 1100W at 110V).



Using thickened oxygen free copper wire core effectively reduces resistance and makes the circuit less prone to overheating. Simultaneously coated with a fireproof layer, it remains safe and durable even in high-temperature and dry environments. Bold thread body, sturdy and resistant to bending, will not break after long-term use.
