About IEC320 C14 to Anderson Saf-D-Grid 400V Power Cables

Superior Power Density of the Anderson Saf-D-Grid to IEC320 C14

With power density becoming increasingly important as data center equipment becomes more capable and hungrier for power, Anderson delivered a new spin on the standard data center power connection. The standard IEC 60320 plug and connector standards are limited to a voltage of 250 Volts. These Anderson Saf-D-Grid connectors are rated for up to 400V and are the same size as the IEC 60320 connector bodies.

Saf-D-Grid Cables General Usages

These power cables are generally used in Data Centers for powering Cisco, Nexus and Arista rack-mounted equipment like servers, switches and power supply units. The unique keying configuration prevents the connection of 400v to 300v and a short connection of male to male. The recessed power connection points are a substantial safety feature as they shield the connection point, effectively shrouding any potential arc during unplugging under load.

    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 most common configuration for a C14 is in a jumper cable scenario, providing power from a PDU to IT Equipment.

About IEC320 C14 to Anderson Saf-D-Grid 400V Power Cables

These power cords are generally used to power switches, power supply units and routers in a data cabinet. These high power connectors have recently become increasingly popular because of their rigid connector body and superior material composition allowing for much higher power output in the same profile. The C14 plug can access power from a standard rack-mount PDU located in a typical data rack cabinet.
