The C19 connector is a larger, higher-current mains connection used on equipment that draws significantly more power than typical Hi-Fi components, such as high-power power amplifiers and certain professional or high-end AV equipment. Its larger physical size and higher current rating distinguish it clearly from the smaller, more common C13 kettle lead connector used on most standard equipment.

Given the higher current these cables are designed to carry, it's particularly important to use a genuinely correctly rated C19 cable rather than substituting a lower-rated alternative, both for safety and to ensure the equipment receives adequate, stable power under demanding operating conditions. Always check your specific equipment's power requirements and connector type before purchasing a replacement or upgraded C19 cable.

For power amplifiers and other high-current equipment requiring this larger connection, our C19 range provides correctly rated cables built to handle the increased power demands safely.
