Mains connection cables for mass-produced devices, export and international OEM projects

Minimum of 500 units – standard minimum order quantity for customised production

Min. 2,000 EUR – standard minimum order value for customised production

Approx. 20–24 weeks, depending on specifications, approvals, materials and authorisation

Series production & call-offs: framework agreements, call-off quantities and packaging available by arrangement

Additional option for smaller project quantities: If fewer than 500 units are initially required for a development project, prototype production, pilot series or market launch, a customised small-batch production run of 100 to 499 units can also be considered on a project-by-project basis. This offers an additional opportunity to implement a project even before regular series production is required.

One-off set-up fee: €490.00 net, shown separately under item number CB-E
Lead time for small batches: approx. 24–26 weeks
Charged once per item or production batch
in addition to the respective item costs

The set-up fee covers the additional costs for setting up and reconfiguring the production line, preparing machinery and tools, the increased labour, personnel and energy costs, as well as production-related material waste associated with small batch sizes. This item does not include any products or goods.

Assembled mains connection cables for equipment manufacturers

Where standard products do not provide an optimal fit in terms of length, colour, connector, certification, packaging or production logic.

Tailored to the device, target market and production requirements

Connector standard, IEC equipment connection, open end, cable type, cross-section, sheath material, cable length, colour and packaging are tailored to the specific project.

Suitable for OEM, export and call-off orders

Ideal for recurring production runs, international device variants, defined part numbers, country-specific mains cable sets and plannable call-off orders.

Important for approvals, target markets and certification

Power cables for OEM and export projects must be suitable for the respective target market, device, connector system and area of application. Desired approvals, standards or certifications should therefore be specified early in the enquiry. Certifications are only offered if they are actually available and documented for the specific design.

Please specify, where possible, the device type, target markets, plug combination, cable length, cross-section, colour, quantity, call-off schedule and any existing part numbers.

United Kingdom: UK power cable
USA / Canada: appropriate NEMA plug depending on the project
Switzerland / Australia: country-specific variants

Frequently asked questions about mains connection cable assemblies

Quick answers for purchasing, development, quality assurance and project management.

From what quantity do custom-made power cables become viable?

For customised mains connection cables, a minimum order quantity of 500 units and a minimum order value of EUR 2,000 normally apply. On a project-by-project basis, a small production run of 100 to 499 units may also be considered. For this, a one-off set-up fee of €490.00 (net) per item or production batch will be charged in addition to the item costs and shown separately under item number CB-E.

How long does production take?

The standard production and delivery time is typically around 20–24 weeks. For small batches of 100 to 499 units, this is usually around 24–26 weeks. The lead time depends on the specification, approvals, material availability, connector type, cable construction and approval process.
