Panduit PLD02BL Dual-Locking Power Cord

Overview

The Panduit PLD02BL is a 2-foot, dual-locking power cord designed to prevent accidental disconnections in critical IT and AV environments. It features IEC C14 input and IEC C15/C13 output, ensuring a secure connection for PDUs, servers, and other rack-mounted equipment. The locking mechanism provides enhanced reliability, reducing downtime caused by power interruptions in high-density deployments.

Compatibility

This power cord is engineered for compatibility with standard IEC C14 inlet receptacles found on most rack-mount PDUs, UPS systems, and IT equipment. The IEC C15/C13 output connector mates with standard IEC C13/C14 equipment power inlets. Its dual-locking design specifically targets applications requiring enhanced connection security, such as those utilizing specific Panduit PDU models or environments where vibration or movement could dislodge standard cords.

Installation Notes

The integrated locking mechanism on both ends ensures that the cord cannot be accidentally pulled out of the PDU or the connected device. For installation, simply plug the IEC C14 end into the PDU or UPS and the IEC C15/C13 end into the equipment. The locking feature engages automatically. To disconnect, a specific release action is required, preventing unintentional removal. The 2-foot length is ideal for tight rack spaces, minimizing cable clutter and improving airflow.

Standards

Certified to meet stringent international safety and performance standards, including cULus, CE, TUV, SAA (Australia / New Zealand), and CCC (China). These certifications confirm the cord's suitability for deployment in a wide range of global markets and applications where safety and compliance are paramount.
