Power cord ACT Powercord C13 - C14 yellow 5 m

The ACT Powercord C13 - C14 yellow 5 m is a 5-metre mains power cable with a C13 female connector at one end and a C14 male inlet at the other. Designed for reliable AC power delivery at up to 250 V and 10 A, this cable provides a visible yellow jacket for easy identification in rack and equipment environments. Its length and standard IEC connectors make it suitable for extending existing C13 cables or connecting power distribution units and equipment where a straightforward, compliant AC connection is required.

Advantages

The yellow outer sheath improves visibility and helps with cable management in densely cabled racks and server rooms. Standard IEC C13 and C14 connectors ensure compatibility with most PDUs, servers and network equipment that accept these common power interfaces. A five-metre length offers flexibility when placing equipment relative to power sources, reducing the need for additional adapters or improvised extensions.

How to use

Connect the C14 male end to the PDU inlet or equipment power inlet and attach the C13 female end to the device’s power plug or to another C14 source as required. Ensure both ends are fully seated to maintain secure contact. Route the cable to avoid sharp bends, pinch points and sources of heat, and secure it with cable ties or routing clips to prevent strain on the connectors.

Recommendations

Verify that the connected devices do not exceed the cable’s 10 A rating and that the installation environment complies with local electrical regulations. For permanent installations in datacentres use proper cable management accessories and avoid running power cables alongside high-interference signal lines when possible.
