Power cable MicroConnect MC-SCHC13-3 — IEC C13 to Schuko, 1.8 m

MicroConnect MC-SCHC13-3 is a mains power cable with an IEC C13 connector on one end and an angled Schuko (Type F / CEE7/7) plug with locking mechanism on the other. The cable delivers standard mains power for European installations and is designed for reliable connection of computers, monitors, servers, PDUs and other IT equipment. The 1.8 m length provides flexibility for typical rack, desk and workstation layouts while the black jacket matches most professional environments.

Advantages

The integrated locking system secures the IEC C13 connection to prevent accidental disconnection under load, reducing the risk of equipment shutdown or data loss. Rated for 250 V and up to 10 A, the cable supports common office and data-centre power requirements. Its angled Schuko plug improves clearance behind furniture or equipment and the cable is compatible with major equipment brands, enabling straightforward replacement or spare-parts provisioning.

Suitable for

• Connecting desktop computers, monitors and printers to mains outlets
• Powering servers and network devices in racks and PDUs where secure connections are required
• Office workstations, meeting rooms and classroom equipment installations
• Temporary or permanent installations requiring a 1.8 m lead and IEC C13 interface

Key specifications

• Connector A: Angled Schuko (Type F / CEE7/7) male with grounding
• Connector B: IEC C13 female with locking mechanism
• Cable length: 1.8 m
• Electrical rating: 250 V, 10 A max
• Color: Black
• Application: Mains power for IT and AV equipment

How to use

Insert the IEC C13 connector into the equipment’s IEC inlet until the locking mechanism engages; confirm the latch is secure. Plug the angled Schuko into a compatible earthed mains socket. To disconnect, release the locking mechanism according to the manufacturer’s instructions and remove the connector. Do not use the cable if the jacket or connectors are damaged, and ensure the installation does not exceed the stated voltage and current ratings.

Recommendations

Use this cable in environments where unintended disconnection could cause data loss or downtime; routinely inspect for wear and ensure the locking mechanism is functioning. Avoid routing the cable across sharp edges or heat sources and keep bend radius within manufacturer guidance to maintain long-term reliability.
