Product Information

Full details

This Lindy 3m UK 3 Pin Plug to Right Angled IEC C7 Mains Power Cable is designed for users with modern flat-screen TVs who want to position their devices closer to the wall. Its primary benefit is the space-saving angled connectors that reduce the protrusion behind the TV. A potential caveat is that the specific angle may not suit all wall-mounting or furniture configurations.

FAQs

What is an IEC C7 connector?

An IEC C7 connector, often called a 'figure-of-eight' connector, is a two-pin ungrounded AC power connector used on many small and medium-sized electronic devices like laptops, audio equipment, and some TVs.

Can this cable be used for any device with a C7 port?

This cable is rated for a maximum of 3A. It is suitable for most devices with a C7 port that do not draw more than 3 Amps. It is not recommended for high-power appliances.

What does 'right-angled' mean for the connectors?

Right-angled means the connectors are designed to bend at a 90-degree angle from the cable. This allows the cable to lie flat against the wall or behind a device, reducing the space required and preventing the cable from sticking out.

Does this cable have a fuse?

Yes, the UK 3-pin plug incorporates a standard 3A fuse for safety.

What is the warranty period for this cable?

This Lindy cable comes with a 10-year warranty.

Is this cable suitable for outdoor use?

No, this cable is designed for indoor use only and is not weatherproof.

What is the difference between an IEC C7 and an IEC C13 connector?

An IEC C7 is a two-pin, ungrounded connector for lower-power devices, often referred to as a 'figure-of-eight'. An IEC C13 is a three-pin, grounded connector used for higher-power devices like desktop computers and monitors.

Troubleshooting

Device does not power on.

Ensure both ends of the cable are securely plugged into the device and the wall socket. Verify that the device is compatible with an IEC C7 connector and a 3A fuse rating. Check if the wall socket is functioning correctly by testing with another appliance.

Cable feels loose at the connection.

Gently check if the IEC C7 connector or the UK plug is fully seated. If damage is visible, discontinue use and replace the cable.

Intermittent power or flickering on device.

This could indicate a loose connection or internal cable damage. Ensure connections are firm. If the problem persists, the cable may need replacement.
