The Aptech 1.5m Fused Desktop PC Power Cord is an essential replacement or spare accessory for desktop computer users. Designed to connect your computer's Power Supply Unit (PSU) to the mains electricity, this cable ensures reliable power delivery to your entire system.
Safety & Protection:
The integrated fuse within the plug head is the key feature of this cable. If a power surge, voltage spike, or short circuit occurs, the fuse will blow before the excess current can reach your computer's power supply. This critical safety mechanism helps protect your expensive PC components—including the motherboard, processor, graphics card, and storage drives—from severe electrical damage. This makes the fused version a significantly more reliable and safer choice than generic unfused cables.
Design & Build:
Measuring 1.5 meters in length, this cord offers sufficient reach for standard desk setups without excessive slack or clutter. It is constructed with high-quality copper conductors for efficient power transmission and durable PVC insulation to prevent fraying, cracking, and general wear and tear. The Aptech brand is widely recognized in Bangladesh for producing reliable power accessories at an affordable price point.
Compatibility:
This cable features the standard IEC C13 connector (often called a "kettle plug" or "figure-8" but actually the 3-prong female variant) on the device end. This is the universal connector found on virtually all:
Desktop PC Power Supply Units (PSUs)
Computer Monitors
Printers and Scanners
Projectors
Many televisions and other electronic devices
Installation:
The cord is a direct replacement for any damaged or lost power cable. Simply unplug the old damaged cord from the back of your desktop computer's power supply (or monitor) and plug in the new Aptech cord. Ensure the connection is secure on both the device end and the wall outlet before powering on.
Use Cases:
Replacing a worn-out, cut, frayed, or lost power cord.
Keeping a spare cord for the office or as a backup.
Use with monitors, printers, scanners, or projectors that accept the same IEC C13 connector.
Building a new PC where a power cord is not included with the case or PSU.
Note: Always verify that the connector on your existing device matches the IEC C13 shape before purchasing. While this is standard for desktop PCs, some smaller devices may use different connectors.
