This IEC C13 Snap-In AC Socket is a professional-grade power output module designed for rapid integration into electronic equipment chassis. Featuring a standardized 3-pin configuration, it serves as the primary female interface for providing power to devices using a standard IEC C14 power cord, commonly found in computer hardware, laboratory instruments, and industrial control panels.
Standard IEC C13 Interface: Optimized for universal compatibility with standard 3-pin AC power cables (C14), ensuring a secure and reliable electrical connection.
Efficient Snap-In Mounting: Designed with heavy-duty plastic tension clips that allow for instant, tool-free installation into rectangular panel cutouts, significantly reducing assembly time.
High-Capacity Power Handling: Safely rated for up to 10A at 250V AC, making it suitable for high-performance servers, industrial machinery, and power distribution units (PDUs).
Robust Terminal Design: Features three high-conductivity spade terminals at the rear for quick-connect crimp or solder wiring of Line (L), Neutral (N), and Ground (E) connections.
Flame-Retardant Construction: Molded from high-impact black thermoplastic to meet essential fire safety standards for enclosed electronic systems.
Connector Type: IEC 320 C13 Female.
Electrical Rating: 10A / 250V AC.
Mounting Style: Snap-In Panel Mount.
Number of Pins: 3 (Live, Neutral, Earth).
Power Distribution Units (PDUs): Ideal for building custom rack-mount power strips for data centers and server rooms.
Industrial Control Panels: Provides a standardized AC output point for internal peripheral devices and testing equipment.
Custom DIY Audio Gear: Often used in the construction of professional-grade power conditioners and amplifier enclosures.
Office & Lab Equipment: Serves as the standard power interface for laboratory centrifuges, printers, and specialized testing hardware.
What panel thickness is required for the snap-in clips? These sockets are typically optimized for standard sheet metal panels ranging from 1.0mm to 2.0mm in thickness. If your panel is too thick, the clips may not engage properly; if it is too thin, the socket may feel loose.
How do I ensure a safe connection at the rear? We recommend using 6.3mm insulated female spade connectors for the most secure and safe wiring. Ensure that the Earth/Ground (center pin) is always connected to the metal chassis of your device to prevent electrical hazards.
Is this the same as a PC power supply socket? No, this is the female output (C13). If you are looking for the male input that you plug a power cord into, you likely need the IEC 3-Pin Power Plug (C14).
