Are C13 and C15 interchangeable?
The C15 cable connector is backwards compatible with a C13, although the C13 connector will not physically fit in an inlet designed for a C15 due to the small notch. While they share similar voltage and current ratings, the C15 is specifically designed for higher temperature applications with a rating of up to 120°C, making it suitable for devices like electric kettles, networking closets, or high-wattage PoE switches.
What is C15 connector rating?
The IEC C15 connector has a temperature rating of 120°C (248°F), higher than the 70°C (158°F) rating of the similar C13/C14 combination. This makes the C15 suitable for hot household appliances like electric kettles and home stills, as well as high-powered networking equipment that generates more heat.
What is a C15 outlet?
An IEC C15 outlet is designed to accept the high-temperature C15 connector, rated for up to 120°C. These outlets are commonly found on older-style electric kettles and jugs, as well as higher-powered servers that require a more robust power connection capable of handling elevated temperatures.
How can you tell C13 from C15?
The most noticeable difference between C13 and C15 connectors is the distinct notch or groove on the C15, opposite the grounding pin. This notch is a safety feature that prevents accidentally plugging a C13 connector into a C15 inlet, as the lower temperature rating of C13 could pose a risk in high-heat applications.
