Power Cords
A Power Cord is a flexible electrical cable designed to connect electrical devices and appliances to the mains electricity supply, safely transmitting power from a wall socket or outlet to equipment for normal operation. It typically includes a plug on one end and a connector or socket on the other, suited to the device’s power inlet.
Power cords are manufactured using high-quality copper conductors and durable insulation materials such as PVC or rubber to ensure safe, efficient, and long-lasting performance. They are designed to handle specific voltage and current ratings, making them suitable for a wide range of applications from household appliances and office equipment to industrial machines and medical devices.
2-pin power cords with Indian plugs are commonly used for Class-II electrical appliances that don’t require earthing. They feature two round pins and flat 2-core cable construction, designed to meet Indian standards like IS:1293 and cable standards such as IS 694:2010/IEC 60227. Depending on the cable size, these cords are suitable for appliances drawing up to 2.5 A or 6 A at 250 V, making them ideal for a variety of household devices and smaller electrical equipment.
Plug Type: Indian 2-pin plug (Type C / Type D depending on rating)
Cable Type: 2-core flat cable (0.50 sq mm, 0.75 sq mm, 1.00 sq mm)
Standards: IS:1293 (plug), IS 694:2010 or IEC 60227 (cable)
Current Ratings:
• 2.5 A @ 250 V (smaller cord versions)
• 6 A @ 250 V (heavier cord versions)Pin Dimensions: Two round pins with 5.03–5.105 mm diameter (varies by plug type)
Typical Uses: Small appliances, lamps, chargers, audio equipment, and other devices compatible with two-pin mains plugs.
6 Amp Indian Plug Power Cords
Our 6 Amp Indian plug power cords are designed for medium-load electrical devices that require reliable power delivery up to 6 A at 250 V. Available with 2-core or 3-core PVC insulated cables, they feature robust construction and precision-engineered plugs that conform to IS:1293 standards. These cords use quality copper conductors and flame-resistant insulation, making them ideal for appliances such as small mixers, lamps, fans, and other household equipment.
16 Amp Indian Plug Power Cords
Our 16 Amp Indian plug power cords are built for heavier electrical loads, making them suitable for larger appliances and industrial equipment that draw higher current. With heavy-duty 3-core cables and high-performance plugs constructed to meet IS:1293 safety standards, these cords deliver dependable power at 16 A and 250 V. Their rugged design ensures stable performance in demanding environments such as air conditioners, water heaters, compressors, and similar high-current applications
3-pin power cords with Indian plugs are used for electrical appliances that require earthing for enhanced safety. They feature three round pins and 3-core cable construction, designed to comply with Indian standards such as IS:1293 and cable standards like IS 694:2010/IEC 60227. Based on cable size and design, these cords support appliances drawing up to 6 A or 16 A at 250 V, making them suitable for both household and heavy-duty electrical equipment.
