Power Cable HP L36818-001 Black 1 m C5 Coupler

The HP L36818-001 power cable is a 1 m black mains lead with a C5 coupler designed to provide a safe and stable power connection for compatible HP notebooks, docking stations and small form-factor power supplies. The cable delivers a standard mains connection with a compact three-pin C5 connector on the device end, offering a simple replacement or spare lead that matches the original equipment’s form factor and electrical requirements.

Advantages

The cable features durable insulation and strain relief to withstand regular handling and repeated insertion into power inlets. Its 1 meter length balances desk neatness and reach, reducing excess cable clutter while allowing flexible placement of equipment. The C5 coupler ensures a secure fit with compatible power bricks and device inlets, and the black finish integrates unobtrusively with most workstations and travel setups.

How to use

Insert the C5 coupler end into the device’s corresponding inlet until it seats securely. Connect the mains plug to an appropriate wall socket or power strip rated for your local mains voltage. Ensure the device and power source are switched off when making the connection. After use, unplug from the mains before disconnecting the C5 end from the device. Inspect the cable periodically for signs of wear or damage and replace if the insulation or connectors become compromised.

Usage recommendations

Use this cable only with devices and power supplies designed to accept a C5 connector and within the voltage and current ratings specified by the device manufacturer. Avoid routing the cable through sharp edges, heated surfaces or under heavy objects. For travel, coil the cable without tight bends to preserve insulation and strain relief.
