Netkabel ACT Powercord C13 - C20 sort 2 m

The ACT Powercord C13 - C20 black 2 m is a 2‑metre mains cable for connecting equipment with a C20 inlet to a standard IEC C13 outlet. Designed for reliable power delivery at 230 V and rated for up to 10 A, this cable provides a straightforward solution for powering servers, network devices, UPS units and other IT equipment that requires a secure IEC connection. The black jacket and molded connectors are intended for repeated use in rack and bench environments where a compact, flexible cable is required.

Advantages

This power cord combines standard IEC connector types (C13 and C20) with a 2 m length to offer both compatibility and reach. The cable’s construction supports continuous AC mains at 230 V and 10 A, providing a stable electrical path for connected equipment. Durable molded connectors and an insulated jacket reduce strain and wear in normal use, while the neutral color and compact profile help maintain a tidy installation in racks or equipment rooms.

Suitable for

• Connecting rack servers and network appliances with C20 inlets to power strips or PDUs with C13 outlets
• Powering UPS units and switchgear that accept IEC C20/C13 connections
• Temporary or permanent setups in server rooms, data centers, laboratories, and AV installations

Key specifications

• Connector A: IEC C13 coupler
• Connector B: IEC C20 coupler
• Length: 2 metres
• Voltage rating: 230 V AC
• Current rating: 10 A
• Color: Black
• Insulation: Flexible, durable PVC jacket

How to use

Before connecting, ensure both the power source and the equipment are switched off. Insert the C20 end into the device inlet and the C13 end into the power source or PDU outlet, ensuring secure, full engagement of the connectors. Route the cable to avoid sharp bends, pinching, or exposure to heat sources. After connection, switch on the power source and then the connected equipment. For disconnection, switch off the equipment and power source first, then unplug the connectors by pulling the molded bodies rather than the cable itself.

Recommendations

Use the cable within its rated voltage and current limits. Avoid running the cable under heavy objects, through doorways where it may be crushed, or in environments with excessive moisture or corrosive chemicals. Periodically inspect the cable and connectors for signs of damage or wear and replace if insulation or connector integrity is compromised.
