FAQs

What does LSZH mean?

LSZH stands for Low Smoke Zero Halogen. This material emits minimal smoke and no toxic halogen gases when exposed to fire, making it a safer option for indoor environments compared to standard PVC cables.

How do I know if my device uses a C7 connector?

A C7 connector, also known as a Figure 8 connector, is a two-pin, non-polarized inlet typically found on devices like laptop power adapters, audio equipment, and some printers. Check the back or side of your device for a port shaped like a horizontally symmetrical '8'.

Is the fuse in the plug replaceable?

Yes, the UK plug is fused (3A) and the fuse cover can be opened to replace a blown fuse. Ensure you use a correctly rated fuse (3A) for replacement.

Can I use this cable outdoors?

This cable is designed for indoor use only. It is not weatherproof and should not be exposed to moisture or extreme temperatures.

What is the warranty period for this cable?

Please refer to the retailer's specific warranty information for this product, as warranty periods can vary.

What is the wire gauge of the cable?

The cable features 2 Core 0.75mm² wiring, providing a suitable capacity for common electronic devices.

Troubleshooting

Device does not power on

Ensure the Figure 8 connector is fully inserted into the device and the UK plug is securely seated in the power outlet. Test the outlet with another device. Check if the fuse in the UK plug has blown and replace if necessary.

Intermittent power connection

Check for loose connections at both the device and the power outlet. Inspect the cable for any visible damage or kinks. Try a different power outlet.

Cable feels hot during use

Disconnect the cable immediately and cease use. This could indicate an internal fault or an incompatible/overloaded device. Consult a qualified electrician or replace the cable.
