This Kenable 006161 power cable is designed for users needing to adapt a C14 IEC input to a C7 'figure of eight' plug. Its primary benefit is enabling connections between devices with these specific power port types, especially for legacy equipment or unique setups. A key caveat is that it is strictly for converting from C14 to C7, and not the reverse. This 2-meter cable features a C14 IEC female connector and a C7 figure-of-eight male plug, with a robust 2 x 0.75mm² conductor.

No, this cable is specifically designed to convert a C14 IEC female connection to a C7 'figure of eight' male plug. It cannot be used in the reverse direction.
The product information does not specify a maximum wattage or amperage. It's constructed with 2 x 0.75mm² conductors, suitable for many standard low-to-medium power devices. Always ensure your device's power requirements are met by the power source and are within safe limits for this type of adapter cable.
C14 is a type of IEC connector often found on computer power supplies and other equipment, commonly referred to as a 'kettle lead' input. C7 is a two-pin connector, often called a 'figure of eight' plug, found on various smaller electronic devices like audio equipment or older monitors.
Yes, the product specifications indicate that it is RoHS compliant.
The cable length is 2 meters.
You can use it with devices that have the specified ports, but it's critical to ensure the power direction (C14 to C7) and the power requirements are compatible. This cable is for adaptation, not for modifying power characteristics.
Ensure the C14 connector is securely plugged into the power source and the C7 connector is fully inserted into the device. Verify that the power source is active. Double-check that the device is compatible with a C14 to C7 conversion and that the power output is sufficient.
Inspect both the C14 and C7 connectors for any debris or damage. Ensure the cable is not bent sharply or under strain. Try a different C7 outlet if available, or test the cable with a different compatible device to isolate the issue.
While some warmth is normal for power cables, excessive heat may indicate an overload. Ensure the connected device's power requirements are within the cable's and source's specifications. If the cable is excessively hot to the touch, disconnect immediately and consult product documentation or a qualified electrician.
Setup: Simply plug the C14 female connector into the power source or adapter that has a C14 male plug, and connect the C7 male plug into the corresponding C7 female socket on your device. Ensure both connections are firm and secure.
Compatibility: This cable is specifically designed to adapt a C14 IEC input to a C7 'figure of eight' plug. It is not intended for use in the reverse direction (converting from a C7 source to a C14 device). Always verify that the power requirements of your connected device do not exceed the capabilities of the cable and the power source.
Care: Keep the cable away from excessive heat, moisture, and sharp objects. Clean connectors periodically with a dry cloth to ensure optimal conductivity. Avoid coiling the cable too tightly, especially around the connectors, to prevent damage to the internal wiring.
