InLine Power Cable C14 Socket to C5 Connector Black 3m H05VV-F 3G 1.0mm²

The InLine Power Cable C14 Socket to C5 Connector Black 3m H05VV-F 3G 1.0mm² is a reliable power connection solution designed to link devices equipped with a cloverleaf inlet to standard power sources such as UPS systems, PDUs, or computer power supplies. Featuring an IEC C14 socket on one end and an IEC C5 connector on the other, this 3-meter flexible PVC cable ensures a stable and secure electricity supply for various professional and technical setups. Constructed with durable materials and moulded connectors, it is built to withstand regular handling in demanding environments.

Advantages

This power cable offers high operational reliability due to its robust moulded connectors and high-quality die-cast housing, which minimize strain on the connection points during daily use. The flexible 3-core H05VV-F cable construction allows for easy routing in tight spaces behind desks, inside server racks, or within AV furniture without compromising electrical performance. With a generous length of 3 meters, it provides extended reach between equipment and power outlets, reducing the need for additional extension cords.

Suitable for

• Connecting laptops and portable workstations to power distribution units or uninterruptible power supplies
• Powering projectors and audio-visual equipment equipped with cloverleaf inlets
• Deploying in data centres, server rooms, and professional IT environments
• Industrial applications requiring stable power transmission for specialized hardware

When it may not be suitable

This cable is not suitable for connecting high-power appliances such as kitchen equipment, space heaters, or heavy industrial machinery that require higher amperage or different connector types. It should also be avoided if a cable length significantly shorter or longer than 3 meters is required for the specific installation layout.

• Cable length: 3 meters
• Connector type 1: IEC 60320 C14 socket
• Connector type 2: IEC 60320 C5 connector
• Cable type: H05VV-F 3G 1.0mm²
• Number of cores: 3
• Colour: Black
• Moulded construction with die-cast housing

How to use

Ensure that the devices to be connected are powered off before installation. Insert the IEC C5 connector firmly into the cloverleaf inlet of the target device, such as a laptop power brick or projector. Connect the IEC C14 socket end into a compatible power source, such as a PDU, UPS, or standard computer power outlet. Verify that both ends are securely inserted and that the cable is routed safely without sharp bends, pinching, or excessive tension before turning on the connected equipment.

What to consider before purchase

• Verify that your equipment utilizes an IEC C5 cloverleaf inlet and your power source features an IEC C14 output
• Measure the required distance between the device and the power source to ensure the 3-meter length is appropriate
• Check the power requirements of your equipment to ensure compatibility with standard cable specifications

Ensure the cable is not coiled tightly during high-current operation to prevent heat buildup, and periodically inspect the connectors and insulation for signs of wear or damage in professional environments.
