The hospital grade power cord offers one of the broadest selections for replacing an overused or misplaced power cord, or to optimize office or lab layout with a cable that is the perfect length needed. Power cords used in hospitals and other medical settings must conform to strict standards for grounding reliability, assembly integrity, strength and durability, as well as regulatory standards such as NEMA and IEC specifications. These standards are in place to ensure that power cords are safe and reliable for use in demanding hospital environments. The female C13 connector plugs directly into the device while the male hospital grade 5-15P connector plugs into a hospital grade supply outlet.
