The ShiverPeaks Power Cable Type F C13 1.8m is a mains lead designed to connect equipment with a C13 inlet to a Type F (Schuko) socket. With a 1.8 metre length and rated for 230 V supply, this cable provides a standard connection for computers, monitors, printers and other office or home electronics that accept the IEC C13 connector. The construction meets applicable safety standards to ensure a secure and stable power connection during everyday use.

Advantages

This power cable offers a balance of length and flexibility suitable for typical desk and rack setups. The durable moulded Type F plug and C13 coupler provide a snug fit that reduces the risk of accidental disconnection. Insulation and conductor design are matched to 230 V operation to maintain stable power delivery and reduce heat buildup during sustained use. The cable's neutral appearance and standard connectors make it compatible with a wide range of devices and power outlets.

Suitable for

• Desktop PCs and workstations with IEC C13 inlet
• Monitors, printers and scanners
• Network equipment such as switches and routers with C13 sockets
• Small UPS units and power distribution units (PDUs) supporting C13

Key specifications

How to use

Insert the C13 coupler firmly into the device's IEC C13 inlet and plug the Type F connector into a compatible 230 V Schuko socket. Ensure the cable is routed to avoid sharp bends and pinch points, and keep it clear of heat sources and moving parts. Before first use, visually inspect the cable for any damage to the insulation or connectors. Disconnect mains power before connecting or disconnecting the cable if the connected device does not support hot-plugging.

Recommendations

Use this cable indoors in dry environments and avoid exposing it to liquids or direct sunlight. For devices with higher power requirements, verify the device's current draw and ensure the cable rating is appropriate. Replace the cable if any signs of wear, fraying, or connector damage appear.
