Today, I will briefly introduce the basic knowledge and advantages of IEC standard power cords.
Regarding the IEC connector, it is the generic name for thirteen types of power cord connectors. Defined by IEC60320 in the International Electrotechnical Commission (IEC) specification, these IEC connectors are widely used for power connections in electrical and electronic equipment. Thirteen different types of IEC power connectors are defined. IEC power connectors are also available in two- or three-conductor variants and in different current variants, enabling power to be connected to different types of electrical and electronic equipment.
IEC power connectors are widely used in household equipment, from including small mains powered radios through computers to items such as electric kettles. The wide variety of IEC connectors means that the same family can be used for a wide variety of applications. So what are the advantages of IEC power connectors?
Advantages of IEC Power Connectors:
IEC power connectors are the standard form of power connector used on electronic and electrical equipment. The easy availability of off-the-shelf wire in the market as a standard format makes it very attractive to consumers for connector manufacturers who can buy off-the-shelf items at very cheap prices. In addition, various filter connectors are available at low cost to integrate filtering and other functions using standard components. These advantages mean that IEC power connectors are ideal for many electronic equipment design applications.
