Description

The Mercury is a 1.5m power cable connecting a UK 3-pin plug to an IEC C13 socket, commonly used on desktop computers, monitors, printers, audio equipment and other mains-powered electronics. The cable uses a BSI-approved 3-core construction with 3 x 0.75mm² conductors and carries a 10A fuse in the plug, rated to supply devices drawing up to 2300W on 230V mains.

Designed for office and home use where equipment sits within 1.5m of a wall socket, the cable suits standard desktop PC setups, monitor configurations, studio equipment and AV racks where the power source is close to the device. The UK plug is BS 1363 approved and fits standard 13A sockets, while the IEC C13 connector is the three-pin female socket found on the majority of desktop computer power supplies, external monitor bricks and rack-mount audio gear.

The black outer sheath keeps the cable visually neutral across most installations, and the 172g total weight makes it easy to route behind desks or through cable management without sagging. The 0.75mm² conductor gauge provides sufficient current capacity for the 10A rating while keeping the cable flexible enough to bend around desk legs and through tight routing paths.

Frequently Asked

What devices use an IEC C13 connector?

The IEC C13 is the standard three-pin socket found on most desktop computer power supplies, external monitors, printers, studio monitors, rack-mount audio equipment, and many other mains-powered electronics. If your device has a three-pin power inlet with a notched rectangular shape, it's likely C13.

Is the fuse replaceable?

Yes. The UK plug uses a standard 10A cartridge fuse accessible by removing the plug's central screw or fuse cover. Replacement 10A BS 1362 fuses are widely available.

Can this cable handle a gaming PC?

Most gaming PCs draw between 300W and 800W under full load, well within the 2300W rating of this cable. However, check your power supply's actual draw — systems with dual high-end GPUs and overclocked CPUs can exceed 1000W, though still within the cable's capacity.

Is the cable suitable for rack-mount equipment?

The 1.5m length suits equipment within close reach of a wall socket, but rack installations often need longer cables to reach power distribution units at the back of the rack. AVSL produces this cable in longer lengths if required.
