Frequently asked questions about international power cables

Why are there different international power cables?

Many countries use their own plug systems and requirements. Therefore, the power cable must be suitable for the relevant target market and the connected device.

Is a travel adapter sufficient instead of a suitable power cable?

An adapter may be useful for short-term mobile applications. For device delivery, volume requirements, OEM, retail and project business, a suitable country-specific power cable is usually the cleaner solution.

What information is important for selection?

Important factors include the destination country, plug type, device side, cable length, cable cross-section, rated values, colour, packaging and product-specific approvals.

Can international power cables be custom-made?

For projects, mass-produced devices and special requirements, different lengths, colours, plug configurations or packaging solutions may be of interest.
