Product Information

Full details

This kenable right-angle Figure 8 C7 power cord is designed for users needing to connect devices in confined spaces, such as behind furniture or wall-mounted TVs. Its primary benefit is its compact design, allowing devices to sit closer to walls, but a caveat is its fixed 0.5m length, which may limit placement options for some setups. It provides a reliable power connection from a UK mains plug to a C7 (Figure 8) socket, featuring a durable, moulded construction with an integrated 3A fuse for safety.

FAQs

What does 'right angle' mean for the connector?

The right angle refers to the 90-degree bend in the Figure 8 (C7) connector. This allows the cable to plug into a device in a way that it lies flat against the surface behind the device, rather than sticking straight out.

What is a C7 Figure 8 connector?

A C7 connector, often referred to as a 'Figure 8' connector due to its shape, is a two-pin AC power connector used for low-power devices such as some laptops, monitors, and audio equipment.

What is the maximum power this cable can handle?

This cable is rated for 3A at 240V AC, which is suitable for most small to medium-sized electronics. Always check your device's power requirements.

Can I use this cable for my gaming console?

It depends on the specific model. Many modern gaming consoles use a C7 input. Please check your console's power port to confirm it is a Figure 8 (C7) socket.

Is the fuse replaceable?

No, this lead is non-rewireable and fully moulded. The 3A fuse is integrated and not designed to be user-replaceable. If the fuse blows, the entire cable should be replaced.

How long is the cable?

The cable length is 0.5 meters (approximately 50cm).

How far does the connector stick out from the device?

The right-angle connector protrudes approximately 2cm from the device when plugged in.

Troubleshooting

Device does not power on.

Ensure the UK plug is fully inserted into the mains socket and the C7 connector is firmly seated in the device. Check that the mains socket is working with another appliance. Verify the device's power requirement does not exceed the 3A rating.

Intermittent power loss.

Check for any kinks or damage to the cable. Ensure connectors are clean and securely plugged in. If the issue persists, the cable may be faulty and should be replaced.

Cable feels warm during use.

A slightly warm cable is normal under load. If the cable becomes excessively hot, immediately disconnect the device and the plug from the mains. Check the device's power consumption; if it exceeds 3A, use a higher-rated cable or power supply. Inspect the cable for damage. If no obvious cause is found, replace the cable.

Pros and Cons

Pros

  • Excellent for reducing cable clutter behind TVs and entertainment units.
  • Allows devices to be positioned closer to walls, saving space.
  • Integrated 3A fuse provides safety and protection.
  • Robust, moulded connectors for durability.

Cons

  • Fixed 0.5m length may be too short for some installations.
  • The right-angle connector might not be suitable for all device port orientations.
  • Not designed for mains-powered devices requiring higher than 3A current.

Setup, Compatibility & Care

Setup: Simply plug the UK mains end into a suitable wall socket or power strip. Connect the 90-degree Figure 8 (C7) end into the corresponding power input on your device. Ensure both connections are secure before powering on the device.

Compatibility: This lead is compatible with any device featuring a standard IEC 60320 C7 (Figure 8) power input socket. It is designed for use with standard UK mains power (240V AC) and devices rated up to 3A.

Care: Keep the cable away from excessive heat, sharp objects, and liquids. Regularly inspect the cable and connectors for any signs of damage. Clean only with a dry or slightly damp cloth; do not use abrasive cleaners. Ensure the cable is fully disconnected from the mains power before cleaning.
