Netkabel ACT C20–C21 IEC60320 zwart 3 m, 16 A, 250 V

The ACT powercord with IEC60320 C20 to C21 connectors is a mains cable designed for connecting high-power IT equipment. With a 3 m length and black jacket, it links C20 inlets to devices fitted with C21 receptacles and is intended for use in server racks, UPS systems and other professional installations.

Advantages

The C21 connector is rated for high temperature resistance up to 155°C, and the cable supports a maximum load of 250 V~ at 16 A. Constructed with 2.5 mm² conductors, the cable provides a robust and stable power connection for equipment from common server and network manufacturers.

Suitable for

When it may not be suitable

This cable is intended for IEC60320 C20 to C21 power interfaces; it is not suitable for devices requiring other IEC connector types (for example C13/C14 or C5/C7) or regional mains plugs. It also should not be used where higher current or voltage ratings are required than 16 A and 250 V~.

Key specifications

How to use

Insert the C20 male end into the corresponding C20 inlet on the power distribution unit or PDU, and plug the C21 female end onto the device’s C21 power inlet until it seats securely. Route the cable to avoid sharp bends and protect it from heat sources; ensure connections are made with equipment powered off where possible and observe standard safety procedures for mains cabling.

What to consider before purchase

Recommendations

For reliable operation in data centers, use this cable with properly rated PDUs and avoid routing near heat-generating components. Replace the cable if any damage to insulation or connectors is visible.
