Useful side-by-side distinctions
IEC C5 versus C7 cord connectorsIs the cord-side IEC connector the grounded C5 form or the non-grounded C7 form? Connector-family identity is only the first layer; implementation-specific electrical and protocol requirements still need exact documentation.↗IEC C6 versus C8 appliance inletsDoes the equipment use the grounded C6 inlet or the non-grounded C8 inlet? Connector-family identity is only the first layer; implementation-specific electrical and protocol requirements still need exact documentation.↗
Name boundary.
A nickname or matching outline is not a replacement-cord approval; electrical and equipment requirements remain separate.

Discovery is not a compatibility verdict.
These discovery surfaces route and reorganize facts already represented in the atlas. They do not add electrical ratings, universal pinouts, measured tolerances, exact-device support, wiring approval or an end-to-end compatibility result.
