The server power cord is composed of three parts: plug, cable, and socket, and is mainly used to connect the server and the power distributor. Different countries have different power cord standards according to different connector types and voltage levels, which leads to many classifications of server power cords. It is very important to choose a suitable server power cord in a network system.
There are two most common types of server power cords on the market today, one is the IEC60320 power cord and the other is the NEMA power cord.
1. IEC60320 power cord
As the name implies, the IEC60320 power cord conforms to the IEC60320 standard. This is a power cord with a maximum voltage of 250V. Although each country has different power cord standards and types, the IEC60320 standard is an international standard used by most countries. The following is the classification of connectors according to different currents and voltages, where "C" represents the connector code standard manufactured by IEC60320.
The plugs and sockets of the IEC60320 power cord are both odd and even-numbered. For example, the most common IEC60320 power cord is a female head is C14 and a male head is C13.
2. NEMA power cord
The NEMA power cord is a power cord that follows the NEMA standard and is usually used in North American countries and some countries that follow the NEMA standard. NEMA power cords are also divided into many models according to different types of plugs and sockets. Among them, the power cord with NEMA 5-15P plug is a widely used two-hole three-wire power cord with a three-wire circuit. Its rated current is 15A and its voltage is 125V, but in general, it can only withstand 110V.
The above two types of server power cords are used in data centers, but the IEC60320 power cord is used in the United States, and the NEMA power cord is generally used in North America and other countries that follow the NEMA standard.
In the data center, the server power cord plays an important role, mainly responsible for connecting the server and the power distributor to supply power to the network equipment. It can minimize the redundant length between PDU and active equipment and cable slack, easily identify different equipment, and is an ideal solution for network equipment power supply.
