Overview
- The APC AP8704R-WW locking power cord kit provides a secure and reliable solution for connecting rack-mounted equipment to APC Rack PDUs. The kit includes six locking connectors—three left-angle and three right-angle configurations—allowing flexibility in cable routing and space optimisation within server racks.
The locking mechanism is specifically designed to work with APC AP8000 series Rack PDUs and IT equipment featuring built-in locking receptacles. This prevents the risk of accidental power cord disconnection, which can result in unexpected downtime and equipment damage. The IEC 60320 C13 to C14 connectors are industry-standard, and the 1.2m cable length accommodates typical rack configurations.
Rated for 10A maximum current, this kit suits a wide range of standard IT equipment including servers, switches, and power distribution units. The mixed angle configuration in the 6-pack enables optimal cable management and routing around crowded equipment bays.

FAQs
What is the difference between standard and locking power cords?
Locking power cords feature a mechanical locking connector that securely fastens to compatible receptacles, preventing accidental disconnection. Standard cords rely only on friction fit. APC locking cords reduce the risk of unexpected power loss in critical environments.
Are these cords compatible with all equipment?
The locking feature works only with APC AP8000 series Rack PDUs or equipment with built-in locking receptacles. The cords will physically fit standard IEC C13/C14 receptacles, but the locking mechanism will not engage without a compatible locking inlet.
Why does the kit include both left-angle and right-angle connectors?
The mixed configuration allows flexible cable routing in confined rack spaces. Left and right angles accommodate different equipment layouts, reducing cable strain and improving airflow management within the rack.
What is the maximum current rating?
The AP8704R-WW is rated for a maximum of 10A continuous current, suitable for standard IT equipment such as servers, network switches, and managed power distribution units.
Is this product suitable for outdoor or non-climate-controlled environments?
This kit is designed for controlled indoor environments. The operating temperature range is 0–70 °C and humidity 20–80%. Extended exposure beyond these ranges may affect performance and is not recommended.
How long is the warranty?
The APC AP8704R-WW includes a 24-month manufacturer's warranty covering defects in materials and workmanship.
Can I use these cords in a standard wall outlet?
No. C13 to C14 connectors are not designed for standard wall outlets. They are exclusively for connecting IT equipment to compatible PDUs and power distribution systems.
