About this deal

A range of electrical appliance connecting leads, the majority of which are terminated with connectors that conform to IEC 60320. Kettle/jug plug” is also informally used to refer to regular temperature-rated C13 and C14 connectors. Australia and New Zealand AS/NZS 3112 (Type I) plug to IEC C7 figure 8 power lead constructed on H03VVH2-F 0.

The PVC connectors are moulded to provide a high-quality cable which is perfect for home and office use. A C8B inlet type is defined by the standard for use by dual-voltage appliances; it has three pins and can hold a C7 connector in either of two positions, allowing the user to select voltage by choosing the position the connector is inserted. These cables are sometimes informally referred to as a "kettle cord" or "kettle lead", but the C13/14 connectors are only rated for 70 °C (158 °F): a device such as a kettle requires the C15/16 connector, rated for 120 °C (248 °F).They are identified by letters, not numbers, with one letter identifying the plug connector, and the alphabetical next letter identifying the mating appliance outlet. This American/Canadian figure of 8 cable is often used to connect audio, video, power supplies and TV’s to name a few. Typical applications with increased pin temperatures include appliances with heating coils such as ovens or electric grills.

It is generally possible to use a connector with a higher rated temperature with a lower rated appliance inlet, but the keying feature of the inlet prevents use of a connector with a lower temperature rating. I recommend you to a lot of people - I've told a lot of colleagues and contacts at other companies how good you are. I've worked with many people in and around the music biz, if more folk were like you it would be a far better industry ! The 3788052 is a 100m 2-conductor unshielded twin figure 8 Speaker Cable with bare copper conductors, white PVC with one side black line jacket. IEC 60309 specifies larger couplers used for higher currents, higher voltages, and polyphase systems.This is exploited by high-powered computer power supplies, up to 1200 W output, and even some particularly efficient 1500 W output models [16] to use the more popular C14 input on products sold worldwide. Cables with a C13 connector at one end and a type E plug connector at the other are commonly available. Business telephone systems allow multi line communications for your workplace with advanced administration features. The IEC (International Electrotechnical Commission) is the international standards and conformity assessment body.

The appliance inlet is designated by the even number one greater than the number assigned to the connector, so a C1 connector mates with a C2 inlet, and a C15A mates with a C16A. Appliances can be used in another country easily, with a simple change of the power supply cord (including a connector and a country-specific plug).

Note that the manufacturer's page only mentions the 10 A rating when used with 18 AWG wire; the UL certification allows 13 A when used with 16 AWG wire. The dimensions and tolerances for connectors, appliance inlets, appliance outlets and plug connectors are given in standard sheets, which are dimensioned drawings showing the features required for safety and interchangeability. Appliance couplers for household and similar general purposes Part 1: General Requirements (IEC 60320-1, Ed. Given the 120 V (±5%) mains supply used in the United States [14] and Canada, [15] these higher ratings permit devices with C6 and C8 inputs to draw more than 114 V × 2. IEC 60320-1 defines a cord set as an "assembly consisting of one cable or cord fitted with one plug and one connector, intended for the connection of an electrical appliance or equipment to the electrical supply".

There is some public confusion between C13/C14 and C15/C16 couplers, and it is not uncommon for C13/C14 to be informally referred to as "kettle plug" or "kettle lead" (or some local equivalent). Similar connector to C5/C6, but with a key ridge instead of an earthing conductor, withdrawn from standard.was added to IEC 60320-1:2015, this requires that "It shall not be possible to engage a part of a non-standard appliance coupler with a complementary part of an appliance coupler complying with the standard sheets in any part of IEC 60320.
