Market

The EU and US data center and industrial server room markets have strict requirements for Class I appliance power supply accessories, with mandatory compliance to regional certification standards including ETL (US) and VDE/BS (EU). A common industry pain point is plug and interface incompatibility between power cords and server cabinet equipment, which causes poor contact and unstable power supply. Meanwhile, high-temperature, 24/7 operation conditions demand power cords with excellent heat resistance and structural stability, and bulk procurement by data center integrators also requires a reasonable minimum order quantity to match project needs.

Customers & Application Scenarios

Our client is a professional electrical equipment integrator serving EU and US medium and large data centers, undertaking power supply wiring projects for over 20 server rooms across North America and Europe. The core application scenario is the power connection of Class I electrical equipment such as server cabinets, network switches and precision cooling systems in closed, high-temperature data center environments. The client’s key demands include regional certification compliance, plug compatibility with IEC C13/C14 interfaces, adaptability to high-temperature working conditions, and a bulk procurement MOQ that aligns with project delivery cycles.

Our Solution

Targeting the client’s pain points, we provide customizable IEC C13/C14 AC power cords for the EU and US markets, with core technical parameters and advantages as follows:
1. Certification compliance: ETL (US), VDE/BS (EU) certified, fully meeting EU and US Class I appliance power supply standards, RoHS compliant;
2. Core specifications: 18AWG/16AWG/14AWG wire gauge options, SVT/SJT/H05VV-F flexible cord material, NEMA 5-15P (US)/CEE 7/17/BS (EU) plugs;
