The PLC20YW Plug-Lock Insert fits snugly over the end of a detachable C19 power cord to ensure it stays connected to a C20 inlet and that critical equipment remains powered. Its yellow color-coding helps you identify the cord quickly in a crowded PDU or rack. A no-clutter alternative to zip ties, the PLC20YW is also a money saver next to more expensive proprietary electrical-cord locks.
C19 cable connections to a C20 inlet are frequently loose-fitting and can be accidentally dislodged from critical equipment by the slightest nudge or vibration, a common occurrence when performing network maintenance. With 10 times more retention force than a standard cord-to-inlet connection, the PLC20YW prevents the cord from coming loose from the inlet. It strengthens the connection, keeping critical equipment plugged in and running during routine rack access and maintenance.
Installation is a breeze. Just place the plug-lock insert over any C19 input cord and connect it to any C20 inlet. To disconnect the cord from the power source, grip both the cord and the insert's tabs at the same time and pull. The PLC20YW is compatible with detachable C19 power cords with no special cables, outlets, tools or hardware required. It's made from high-strength PA66 nylon that meets UL 94 standards with a V-2 flame rating. Each package contains 100 inserts.
