Many types of coupler also have common names. The most common ones are "IEC connector" for the common C13 and C14, the "figure-8 connector" for C7 and C8, and "cloverleaf connector" or "Mickey Mouse connector" for the C5/C6.
The IEC 60320 system is used throughout the industrialized world. By designing an IEC 60320 power inlet into a product, the manufacturer can attach a country-specific cord set (e.g. a country-specific plug on one end with an IEC 60320 connector on the other end) just prior to shipment.
IEC 320 is an international standard for appliance couplers. Use this IEC 60320 (IEC 320) reference chart to identify a configuration by pin array or designation.
The IEC320 C14 Plug is normed in IEC 60320. The C14 connector type is the most used connection type in the EU. If you have to use a connector with phase, ground, and neutral, this is the right connector for you. This particular implementation (IEC320) comes with a fuse and a switch.
ADAPTER (EXTENSION), IEC 60320 UP/DOWN ANGLE C-14 PLUG, IEC 60320 UP/DOWN ANGLE C-13 CONNECTOR. CONNECTS IEC 60320 C-14 PLUGS WITH IEC 60320 C-13 POWER CORDS, 10A-250V.
The IEC 60320 C14 is a grounded 3 Wire Plug rated up to 250V and 15 Amps. The C14 mates with a C13 outlet, typically found on Data Center/IT specific PDUs (Power Distribution Unit).
The chart lists various IEC320 plug types C1 through C24, specifying their voltage and amperage ratings, number of wires and poles, and common cord, plug, inlet, and adapter compatibility. The plug types are standardized but can vary in compatibility between international and North American systems.

According to the standard, C13/C14 plugs don't have a set voltage (unlike something like a L6-20P), so it is up to the consumer/manufacturer to decide which voltages are appropriate.
Therefore, the specifications of IEC 60320 C14 | IEC 320 C14 on this page differ from the specifications of other connector types. If you need a connector type other than IEC 60320 C14 | IEC 320 C14 or any of the other connector types on this page, please contact us.
