APC by Schneider Electric AP8713SX744 Locking C19 to C20 Power Cord Kit (6 Ea)
Overview
The APC by Schneider Electric AP8713SX744 is a kit of six locking power cords designed to prevent accidental disconnection of critical IT equipment from PDUs or UPS systems. Each cord features a C19 connector on one end and a C20 connector on the other, with a locking mechanism to ensure a secure fit. This is essential for environments where vibration or accidental tugs could otherwise disrupt power to servers, network switches, or other sensitive hardware. Deploying these cords mitigates the risk of unplanned downtime caused by power cable dislodging.
Compatibility
This power cord kit is designed for use with any equipment featuring a C20 inlet and any PDU or UPS with a C19 outlet. It is specifically compatible with APC's NetShelter racks and racks from other manufacturers, provided the PDU and equipment interfaces match. It is suitable for use with APC Smart-UPS, Symmetra, and other UPS systems, as well as APC Switched Rack PDUs and Metered Rack PDUs that utilize C19 outlets.
Installation Notes
Each cord utilizes a standard IEC C19 to C20 connection. The locking feature engages when the connector is fully inserted into its mating receptacle. To disconnect, the locking tab must be depressed before pulling the connector free. Ensure the equipment's power draw does not exceed the cord's rating (typically 16A or 20A depending on local standards and the specific cord construction, though not explicitly detailed for this SKU). Verify that the C19 outlet on your PDU or UPS is rated for the load.
