The C13 connector, widely referred to as a kettle lead due to its historical association with electric kettles, is by far the most common mains connection found on Hi-Fi and AV equipment. Amplifiers, AV receivers, CD players, streamers and countless other full-size components typically use this three-pin, earthed connector, making C13 cables the most frequently needed mains cable type for the majority of Hi-Fi and home cinema setups.

Given how widely used this connector is, our C13 range covers everything from simple, reliable replacement cables to upgraded options built with better shielding and higher-quality conductor materials, aimed at supporting cleaner power delivery to more sensitive equipment. Because this connector includes an earth pin, it's generally used on equipment requiring a proper earth connection for electrical safety.

Whether you're replacing a worn stock lead or looking to upgrade the mains cable feeding a sensitive component, our C13 mains cable range covers this near-universal Hi-Fi connection.
