About UPS Power Cords & Whips
What UPS power cords and whips do
Power cords and whips connect your UPS, your PDU and the equipment they protect. The right cord matches the connector at both ends, carries the required current safely, and is the correct length — get any of those wrong and you either can't plug in or you risk nuisance trips and overheating.
This collection covers IEC and NEMA cords, UPS/PDU output cords and power whips from APC, Eaton, Vertiv, CyberPower and Tripp Lite. Confirm both connector ends, the amperage rating and the length before ordering.
Connector types at a glance
| Connector | Typical rating | Common use |
|---|---|---|
| C13 / C14 | 10 A | Servers, network gear, PDU outlet to device (C14 inlet → C13 outlet) |
| C19 / C20 | 16–20 A | High-draw servers, blade chassis, larger UPS and PDUs |
| NEMA 5-15P / 5-20P | 15–20 A | Standard North American wall or PDU input |
| NEMA L5-30 / L6-30 (twist-lock) | 30 A | Power whips from higher-capacity UPS/PDU; locking prevents accidental disconnect |
How to choose
1. Match both connector ends
Identify the outlet on the source (UPS or PDU) and the inlet on the device. A cord is defined by both ends — e.g. C14-to-C13 for most rack gear, or C20-to-C19 for high-draw equipment.
2. Check the amperage
The cord must be rated for at least the device's draw. C13/C14 cords carry up to 10 A; C19/C20 up to 16–20 A. Don't adapt a 10 A cord onto a 16 A circuit.
3. Length and locking
Order the shortest cord that reaches cleanly — excess length clutters the rack and blocks airflow. For movable or critical loads, locking IEC and twist-lock NEMA cords prevent accidental unplugging.
Installation & specs
Output cords from a UPS or PDU should stay within the source's rated capacity — total the connected load before filling every outlet. Use locking cords for rack-mounted UPS and PDUs where vibration or cable dressing can loosen a standard plug. Confirm voltage (120 V vs 208/240 V), connector type and length for each run.
FAQ
What's the difference between C13 and C19?
C13/C14 is the common 10 A connector for most servers and network gear. C19/C20 is the larger 16–20 A connector for high-draw equipment and bigger UPS/PDU units. They are not interchangeable.
Why use locking power cords?
Locking IEC and twist-lock NEMA cords mechanically latch so a cord can't be pulled out by accident during maintenance or cable management — valuable for mission-critical loads.
What length should I order?
The shortest that reaches without strain. Excess cable blocks airflow and clutters the rack; too short stresses the connector.
Can I use one cord for any UPS?
Only if the connectors and rating match. Confirm the UPS/PDU outlet type, the device inlet and the amperage. If unsure, send us your models and we'll confirm.
