Description

HPE P86428-B21 250V 2.5A Power Cord

Overview

The HPE P86428-B21 is a 1.8-meter power cord rated 250V at 2.5A maximum current draw. This cord is terminated with a South African (ZA) plug connector and serves as a replacement or spare power feed for HPE enterprise equipment in regional deployments. The model number P86428-B21 identifies the exact connector type and regional specification — critical when ordering replacements to avoid incompatible plug formats across geographies.

Compatibility

This cord is designed for HPE server, storage, and networking equipment that ships with regional ZA connectors. Before ordering, verify the existing cord's connector type and voltage rating on your target equipment. South African plugs follow the SANS 164-1 standard (two round pins, grounded). Do not use this cord with equipment specifying different regional connectors (US NEMA, EU Schuko, UK BS 1363, Australian AS/NZS) without a verified adapter — mismatched plugs create fire and shock hazards.

Installation Notes

Verify incoming mains voltage at the outlet matches the 250V rating before connecting. The 2.5A limit means this cord is suitable for lower-power equipment draws — do not exceed 625W (250V × 2.5A). Inspect the connector and cable jacket for visible damage or discoloration before use. Route the 1.8-meter length clear of moving equipment and pedestrian traffic to prevent accidental disconnection or damage. If the cord shows signs of wear, scorch marks, or intermittent power loss, discontinue use and replace immediately.
