This kenable locking IEC C13 to Schuko mains power cable is for users needing a secure, reliable power connection for equipment with an IEC C13 socket, especially in environments prone to vibration or where accidental disconnection is a concern. Its key benefit is the secure locking mechanism that prevents unintentional unplugging. A potential caveat is that it requires a standard IEC C13 socket, not a specialized one, though the locking feature itself is the primary differentiator. The cable features a molded BS1363 EU Schuko plug to a locking IEC C13 female connector, commonly found on PCs and monitors.

An IEC C13 connector is a type of power connector commonly found on computer power supplies, monitors, and other electronic equipment. It's often referred to as a 'kettle plug' connector.
The 'locking' feature means the IEC C13 connector has a small latch or catch that secures it into the device's power socket, preventing accidental disconnection. You need to press the release catch to unplug it.
No, this cable features an EU Schuko plug and is designed for use with European power outlets. It is not compatible with standard UK 3-pin outlets.
Yes, as long as the device has a standard IEC C13 power input socket, this cable will connect. The locking feature is designed to work with standard sockets.
Locate the small release catch on the IEC C13 connector. Press this catch down firmly and then pull the connector out of the socket.
The primary benefit is increased security against accidental power loss, which is crucial for sensitive equipment, critical systems, or in environments prone to vibration.
The cable has a black finish.
Ensure the EU Schuko plug is firmly seated in a working power outlet. Check that the IEC C13 connector is fully inserted into the device's power port. Verify that the power outlet itself is functional by testing with another device.
Confirm that the locking mechanism on the IEC C13 connector has fully engaged. If it's not locking, inspect the IEC C13 socket on your device for obstructions or damage. Ensure you are using a standard IEC C13 socket, as the locking feature is designed for this.
Press the release catch firmly on the IEC C13 connector before attempting to pull the plug. Ensure there is no debris or damage to the locking mechanism.
Setup: Simply plug the EU Schuko end into a compatible EU power outlet and the IEC C13 end into your device's power input socket. The locking mechanism engages automatically. To disconnect, press the release catch on the IEC C13 connector before pulling the plug.
Compatibility: This cable is designed to work with any standard IEC C13 socket found on most PCs, monitors, printers, and other electronic devices. The plug is a standard EU Schuko type.
Care: Keep the cable clean and free from dust, particularly around the connectors. Avoid sharp bends or kinking the cable. Inspect regularly for any signs of damage. Cleaning can be done with a dry or slightly damp cloth; ensure the cable is completely dry before reconnecting power.
