Overview
- The APC Locking Power Cord Kit provides a secure, standardised power connection solution for rack-mounted equipment and PDUs. Each pack contains six locking IEC power cords with C13 to C14 connectors, designed to prevent accidental disconnection in demanding data centre environments.
The tool-free locking mechanism eliminates the need for special equipment to engage or disengage the cord, reducing maintenance time and improving operational efficiency. With a 1.2 metre length and 10 A rating, these cords are ideal for standard rack installations and server environments.
APC's locking IEC system enhances power cord reliability and security, particularly important in mission-critical applications where power continuity is essential.

FAQs
What is the difference between locking and standard IEC power cords?
Locking IEC cords feature a mechanical locking mechanism that prevents accidental disconnection, providing enhanced security and reliability in data centres. Standard cords can be removed more easily and are prone to accidental unplugging.
Are these cords compatible with my UPS and PDU equipment?
These cords are designed for equipment with C14 input (male) and C13 output (female) IEC connectors. Verify your equipment's connector type before purchase. They are commonly used with APC PDUs and compatible rack-mounted power distribution units.
Why should I buy a 6-pack instead of individual cords?
The 6-pack provides cost savings compared to individual purchases and allows for standardised bulk replacement or deployment across multiple racks and equipment in your data centre.
How do I engage and disengage the locking mechanism?
The locking mechanism is tool-free, meaning no special equipment is required. Simply align the connector and push firmly to lock. To remove, rotate the collar or press the release mechanism (no tools needed).
What is the maximum safe current for these power cords?
These cords are rated for a maximum of 10 A continuous current. Do not exceed this rating. Verify your equipment's power requirements fall within this specification.
Are these cords suitable for outdoor or wet environments?
No. These cords are designed for indoor use in controlled environments. Operating temperature range is 0 to 70 °C with 20 to 80 % relative humidity. They are not suitable for outdoor, wet, or harsh environments.
What warranty is provided with these cords?
APC provides a 24-month manufacturer's warranty covering defects in materials and workmanship.
