UK Plug Power Cords

Name: UK Plug Power Cords | BS1363 Power Cable - Frigate
Price: 249.00 USD
Availability: InStock

UK Plug Power Cords must meet BS1363 dimensional and performance criteria to ensure compatibility with British socket systems and fused safety protocols. Pin geometry is verified under micrometer-level inspection to pflegen insertion tolerances, and the plug body undergoes heat resistance testing under Clause 18 of BS1363 Part 1. Mechanical retention force is validated to prevent disconnection during high-vibration or mobile applications.

Rated Voltage

250V AC ±10%, single-phase

Rated Current

3A, 5A, 10A, or 13A (fused), per BS1362 fuse selection

Plug Standard Compliance

BS 1363 Part 1:2016+A1:2018

Dielectric Withstand Voltage

2500V AC for 1 minute (between live parts and earth)

Insulation Resistance

≥100 MΩ at 500V DC between conductors and earth

Product Description

UK Plug Power Cord is engineered with cold-forged brass terminals, tin-plated to reduce surface oxidation and contact resistance. Each terminal assembly is validated through contact pressure mapping and temperature rise testing under maximum rated current. This eliminates micro-arcing, which is a frequent failure mode in high-load devices where steady-state current exceeds 10A for extended periods.

Conductor Resistance

≤26 ohm/km for 0.75mm², ≤18 ohm/km for 1.0mm², per IEC 60228

Ground Continuity Resistance

≤0.1 ohm from earth pin to CPC termination

Temperature Rating (Plug Housing)

-10°C to +70°C continuous operating temperature

Glow Wire Test Rating

850°C (per IEC 60695-2-11)

Bending Radius

Minimum 6× outer diameter without damage

Flexing Endurance

≥10,000 cycles at ±60° under 1kg load (IEC 60227-2 test method)

Flame Retardancy Classification

IEC 60332-1 compliant PVC or rubber sheathing

Cable Type Options

H05VV-F, H05RN-F with 2-core or 3-core variants

Terminal Crimp Pull-Out Force

≥30N for 0.75mm² conductor, per IEC 60884-1

5–36N measured per BS1363 Appendix B

Technical Advantages

UK Plug Power Cord includes harmonized cable types like H05VV-F and H05RN-F with conductor sizes rated for 3G0.75mm² to 3G1.5mm². Insulation resistance and dielectric strength are tested per IEC 60227 standards, with each production batch undergoing 2.5kV AC hi-pot testing to ensure no dielectric breakdown. This ensures consistent insulation performance under repetitive thermal cycling.

UK Plug Power Cord is fitted with BS1362 ceramic fuses designed to interrupt overcurrent faults between 1A and 13A. Fuse performance is validated by pre-arcing and total clearing time tests per IEC 60127. The plug cavity is precision-machined to hold the fuse axially, maintaining reliable thermal conduction and preventing axial misalignment during thermal expansion.

Industry Applications

Medical Diagnostic Equipment

Supports IEC 60601-compliant power delivery in Class I devices with strict grounding continuity and low leakage current requirements.

Laboratory Analyzers and Centrifuges

Delivers stable 230V AC input with reinforced insulation for dielectric separation in high-sensitivity analytical instruments.

Telecommunication Power Distribution Units (PDUs)

Enables consistent current flow to rack-mounted devices while maintaining low contact resistance and cable management compliance.

HVAC Control Panels

Powers electromechanical controls and relays where thermal stability and insulation integrity under cyclic loading are essential.

Industrial 3D Printers and CNC Controllers

Provides fused line protection with genaue voltage transfer across variable mechanical orientations and ambient thermal profiles.

POS Terminals and Payment Kiosks

Supports compact power delivery with flame-retardant insulation and precision-molded plugs for high-insertion frequency applications.

Ground Continuity and Contact Resistance

UK Plug Power Cord used in Class I equipment is tested for ground conductor continuity under 25A current to confirm a resistance below 0.1Ω. Ground pin is bonded via solid crimp to the CPC (circuit protective conductor), minimizing impedance in fault conditions. The cord complies with continuity verification protocols outlined in Clause 12 of BS1363.

UK Plug Power Cord must withstand elevated operating temperatures due to prolonged resistive loading. Thermoplastic or thermoset plug enclosures are tested per Glow Wire Test (GWT) to 850°C, ensuring no ignition or deformation under fault conditions. Dimensional stability is retained after thermal shock and IR reflow exposure to simulate heating near transformers and power filters.

Having Doubts? Our FAQ

Check all our Frequently Asked Question

How does Frigate ensure long-term thermal stability in UK Plug Power Cord under continuous load?

Frigate uses thermoset or high-grade thermoplastic compounds tested for thermal endurance above 125°C. Each UK Plug Power Cord undergoes thermal cycling tests to simulate operational heat exposure. Contact points are evaluated for temperature rise under full load to prevent terminal oxidation. This ensures thermal stability in environments with continuous power draw.

What is Frigate’s method for verifying conductor resistance in UK Plug Power Cord?

Frigate uses a four-terminal Kelvin method to measure conductor resistance accurately across all cable lengths. This confirms compliance with EN 50525 conductor sizing for rated currents. Each batch of Power Cord is checked for linear resistance values to prevent voltage drops. This guarantees consistent electrical performance across extended lengths.

How does Frigate validate plug pin geometry in UK Plug Power Cord?

All plug pins are checked using coordinate measuring machines (CMM) for conformity to BS1363 tolerances. Frigate ensures insertion and withdrawal forces fall within specified parameters. UK Plug Power Cord assemblies are sampled for dimensional stability after molding. This process prevents poor fit or damage to mating sockets.

What strain relief testing does Frigate perform on UK Plug Power Cord assemblies?

Frigate subjects each UK Plug Power Cord to tensile pull tests exceeding 50N along the axial direction of the cable. The strain relief system is validated under torque and flex conditions. This ensures cable jacket and internal connections remain intact during installation and operation. Fatigue testing confirms mechanical robustness in mobile or industrial setups.

How does Frigate handle fused protection calibration in UK Plug Power Cord?

Fregatte installs BS1362 ceramic fuses and verifies their interrupt rating through pre-arcing and total clearing time analysis. Each fuse is matched to the conductor’s ampacity and expected equipment load. UK Plug Power Cord assemblies are subjected to simulated overcurrent faults to confirm fuse behavior. This prevents premature disconnection and protects downstream electronics effectively.
