NEMA 6-15P IEC C13 Power Plug Adapter
This is a specialized power adapter designed for connecting equipment with IEC 60320 C14 plugs (such as servers, networking gear, industrial printers, or high-voltage AV systems) to a NEMA 6-15R receptacle (a 15A/250V, 240V-rated outlet common in North America for heavier-duty applications like dryers, welders, or data centers). The “Right Angle” refers to the IEC C13 receptacle, which is angled at 90° for space-saving installation in tight spots like server racks or behind equipment. It’s a compact plug adapter, often in block or short-cord style (minimal or no flexible cable, typically 1-3 feet if any), ETL Listed for safety compliance (tested by Intertek for electrical hazards, equivalent to UL standards). This ensures reliable grounding and protection against overloads. Ideal for IT environments, workshops, or home setups requiring 240V without bulky cords.
