ACT Powercord C19 to C20 IEC Lock Dual Locking Black 1 m PC3632

The ACT Powercord C19 to C20 IEC Lock Dual Locking Black 1 m PC3632 is a reliable power cable designed to provide secure power connections in demanding professional IT environments and data centers. Featuring a C19 coupler and a C20 coupler with a dual locking mechanism, this 1-meter black cable prevents accidental disconnection from critical equipment and power distribution units. It supports an input voltage of 250 V and an input current of 16 A, making it an essential accessory for maintaining uninterrupted power delivery.

Advantages

This power cord incorporates a specialized dual locking system on both ends, utilizing an IEC Lock mechanism that engages securely without requiring any special tools or proprietary PDU designs. The universal locking connectors protect sensitive hardware against accidental pull-out, vibration, and human error, thereby minimizing the risk of unexpected downtime and equipment damage. With a robust 1.5 mm² conductor cross-section, the cable ensures stable electrical performance under high loads while offering straightforward integration into existing server racks and network cabinets.

Suitable for

• Connecting servers and network equipment in enterprise data centers
• Power distribution units in server racks requiring secure retention
• Mission-critical IT hardware where accidental disconnection must be avoided
• Professional AV installations and broadcasting equipment

When it may not be suitable

This power cable may not be suitable for standard household appliances or non-standard equipment sockets that do not accommodate C19 or C20 connections. Additionally, applications requiring a cable length significantly longer or shorter than one meter will necessitate a different size variant.

Key specifications

• Cable length: 1 m
• Connector 1: C19 coupler straight female with IEC Lock
• Connector 2: C20 coupler straight male with dual locking mechanism
• Input voltage: 250 V
• Input current: 16 A

How to use

To use the ACT powercord, simply insert the C19 coupler into the corresponding inlet of your IT device and the C20 connector into the power distribution unit. Push both connectors firmly until the integrated locking mechanism engages automatically. To disconnect, release the locking latch manually according to the connector design instructions. Ensure that the total electrical load does not exceed the specified voltage and current ratings before powering on the connected devices.

What to consider before purchase

• Verify that your equipment utilizes C19 and C20 ports
• Check the required cable length to ensure the 1-meter option fits your rack layout
• Confirm that your power source operates within the 250 V and 16 A electrical limits

Usage recommendations: Regularly inspect the cable and locking mechanisms for signs of wear or damage in high-density environments. Ensure proper cable routing to prevent excessive strain on the connectors and maintain adequate airflow around server rack components.
