IEC Connectors
Pair these connectors with standard IEC power cords to bring power into or out of your electronic devices. Often used to convey power from wall outlets, there’s no need to wire your devices to an external power source. Instead, wire these connectors into your device with the terminals on the back of each connector. Most meet U.S. or international standards for safety.
Plugs mate with female receptacles.
Sockets mate with male receptacles.
Receptacles are often installed in electrical devices. Male receptacles are commonly used to bring power into an electronic device. Some accept a fuse to prevent short circuits and circuit overloads from damaging your devices. The fuses are sold separately. Female receptacles are frequently used to bring power out of one electronic device and into another. C19 receptacles are often called J outlets.
Screw-on connectors mount to devices with any panel thickness, as long as you can drill mounting holes into the device. Inline connectors mount to male and female cord ends. IP-rated connectors meet standards for protecting you from making contact with a live circuit. The larger the first digit, the smaller the object it protects against. An IP20 rating means fingers and other objects larger than 12.5 mm can't get in. Connectors with a UL 94 rating have passed one of UL's flame tests.

Multi-Outlet IEC Connectors
Distribute power from one electronic device to several others with these connectors. By housing multiple outlets in a single unit, they save space and time spent on installation. They’re compatible with IEC power cords, which are the industry standard for power connections. The outlets are C13 receptacles, also known as Sheet F outlets.
Wire these connectors into your device with the terminals on the back of each outlet. They mount to your device with snap-in tabs—no fasteners needed—but require a specific panel thickness and a precisely cut hole for secure mounting.
All meet international standards for safety. They are rated for Class I Shock Protection, meaning they have insulation and a protective ground.
Quick-disconnect terminals are faster to wire than solder connections. The terminals slide together with the quick-disconnect terminals on your wiring and are easily disconnected by hand, but still provide a strong hold. Rated IP30, these connectors prevent objects larger than 2.5 mm, such as screwdrivers, from making contact with a live circuit and shocking you. They also meet UL 94 V-0, so they’ll self-extinguish within 10 seconds if they catch fire and won’t spread flames from dripping.

Combination Inlet/Outlet IEC Connectors
Send power to your device using the inlet, then route power to another device through the outlet—all with standard IEC power cords. Compared to using separate receptacles, these combination connectors are quicker to install and have a more streamlined appearance. Snap the connector into your panel—tabs on the side hold them in place without needing fasteners. Then solder your power supply to the wire terminals for a secure, permanent bond. C13 receptacles are also known as Sheet F outlets.
Rated IP30, these connectors prevent objects greater than 2.5mm wide, such as screwdrivers, from touching internal components and accidentally shocking you. With Class I shock protection, they’re insulated and have a protective ground.
These connectors meet UL 94 V-0, which means they self-extinguish within 10 seconds if they catch fire, and won’t spread the fire by dripping. They’re also UL recognized, CE marked, CSA certified, and ENEC marked, so you know they meet stringent safety standards.
