ACT Powercord C19 IEC Lock - C20 IEC Lock Dual Locking blue 1 m, PC3634

The ACT Powercord C19 IEC Lock to C20 IEC Lock Dual Locking blue 1 m is a 1-metre mains lead designed for 250 V, 16 A applications. It features an IEC C19 connector on one end and a C20 Dual Locking connector on the PDU side. The cable's dual locking system secures connections at both ends and reduces the risk of accidental disconnection, helping maintain uptime in rack and data centre setups.

Advantages

The C20 Dual Lock connector locks at the top and side to provide extra protection against accidental release from the PDU, while the C19 IEC Lock secures the equipment end. The locking mechanism is universal and compatible with major PDU brands, requiring no tools or a PDU-integrated lock to function. Colour options enable easy identification of power feeds.

Suitable for (tasks / use cases)

• Rack-mounted servers and network equipment in data centres
• Power distribution units (PDUs) without built-in locking
• Environments where accidental disconnection must be prevented
• Colour-coding of power circuits and quick identification

How to use

Insert the C19 IEC Lock into the equipment inlet and push the C20 Dual Lock connector firmly into the PDU outlet until the locking mechanism engages.

Verify secure engagement visually and by a gentle pull test before placing equipment into service.

Recommendations

Use the cable to replace non-locking leads where accidental unplugging presents a risk. Choose distinct colours for separate circuits and inspect locking elements periodically for wear or damage. Follow the rack or PDU manufacturer's instructions for power connections and ensure the cable's current and voltage ratings match the system requirements.
