Power cable c-tech CB-PWRC5-20A 1.8 m VDE 3-pin Schuko plug

c-tech CB-PWRC5-20A is a 1.8 m power cable with a VDE-certified 3-pin Schuko plug designed to supply mains power to devices that accept a Schuko connection. The cable provides a grounded connection suitable for computers, monitors, printers and many household and office appliances. VDE certification indicates compliance with recognized safety standards for insulation and electrical contacts, and the cable’s length and connector type follow common industry specifications for desktop and small office equipment.

Advantages

The cable features a three-conductor design with an earth contact for reliable grounding and consistent power delivery. Durable outer insulation and robust molded connectors reduce strain at connection points and help protect conductors from wear. VDE certification ensures the product meets safety and testing requirements common in European markets, while the 1.8 m length offers flexibility in positioning equipment without excess slack.

Suitable for

• Desktop PCs and workstations
• Monitors and displays
• Printers, scanners and multifunction devices
• Audio equipment and small amplifiers with Schuko inlets
• Home and office appliances that require a grounded Schuko connection

Key specifications

• Cable length: 1.8 m
• Connector type: 3-pin Schuko plug (grounded)
• Certification: VDE-certified
• Conductors: three-core with earth
• Intended voltage: mains AC (standard household/office range)
• Outer insulation: durable PVC or equivalent material

How to use

Insert the Schuko plug into a compatible grounded mains socket and connect the female end to the device’s power inlet, ensuring firm seating of both connectors. Before use, inspect the cable and connectors for visible damage, cuts or exposed conductors. Do not use the cable if the insulation is compromised or if the connectors are cracked. Disconnect power at the wall before disconnecting the cable from equipment if safe handling requires it.

Usage recommendations

Use the cable in dry, indoor environments and avoid exposure to excessive heat, liquids or mechanical strain. Route the cable to prevent tripping hazards and avoid tight bends near the connector ends. For devices with high current draw, ensure the socket and connected power distribution devices are rated appropriately. Replace the cable if any signs of wear, overheating or damage appear.
