IEC 60320 C13 cord connector

IEC 60320 C13 is a cord-side appliance-coupler connector commonly paired with a C14 appliance inlet.

Also called C13 IEC C13 computer power cord connector

A C13/C14 shape match identifies a coupler family, not the appliance voltage, current or safety approval.

Look for

Distinguish the cord connector from the appliance inlet and read the equipment rating before selecting a cord.

The useful distinction

Recognize it. Then verify it.

IEC 60320 C13 is a cord-side appliance-coupler connector commonly paired with a C14 appliance inlet. [C179A]

SCHURTER 4782 is catalogued as an IEC C13 cord connector; the observed product photos and datasheet identify a cable-side component, not both ends of a mains cord. [C179B]

The SCHURTER 4782 datasheet identifies a 70°C pin-temperature classification; this is a part/series rating under documented conditions, not an automatic rating for an appliance, installed cord or alternate product. [C179C]

SCHURTER's documented IEC C13 product family identifies the complementary C14 form in the cited mating-product references. Confirm the actual variants and full installed equipment/cordset documentation; no safe-fit or cable-load approval follows solely from that relationship. [C179D]

SCHURTER 4782 is a straight rewireable C13 cord connector with screw-on mounting, a thermoplastic housing rated UL 94V-0 and Protection Class I construction. [C179W]

The 4782 datasheet distinguishes 70 °C pin temperature from allowable operation of −25 °C to 70 °C. It lists IEC 10 A / 250 VAC / 50 Hz separately from UL/CSA 15 A / 250 VAC / 60 Hz component ratings. [C179X]

The exact black 4782.0000 variant recommends 8.5 mm cable diameter and lists maximum conductor acceptance as IEC 3 × 1 mm² or UL 3 × 18 AWG. [C179Y]

Identify the documented form

Identify the C13 cord-side connector separately from the appliance inlet.

C13 is the cord-connector side of the documented C13/C14 pairing. S195
The SCHURTER example is a cable-side component, not both ends of a complete mains cord. S584

Before you connect

What to check

Identify the exact connector family and variant from the equipment or cable documentation.
Keep shape, contact count, protocol, electrical rating and device support as separate facts.
Do not force, rewire or adapt a connector from this recognition record; resolve the remaining requirements first.

Trace a supported connection class →

What is not established

This field note does not approve a connection, adapter, cable assembly, rewiring scheme or fabricated part. It intentionally omits unsupported pin assignments and mechanical tolerances.

V141 manufacturer example and safe interpretation

Rewireable straight cord connector; not a complete certified cordset. Confirm the exact cord assembly, appliance inlet and equipment nameplate. Not established: Country plug, installed lead rating, exact mating variant and equipment approval. Refer to source S584; no wiring, electrical installation or fit is certified.
