Hello Group, Recently my purchasing department asked me to recommend standards for power cords. These are detachable power cords for ITE equipment, both 3-wire and 2-wire. Typically the cords are marked with one or more of CSA, UL, (Dentori T). The ones we get are typically rated from 6 to 10 times the required current for a given product.
My question is, are there required or recommended power cord design margins for current, voltage, power, temperature range, insulation, etc. spelled out in IEC/EN 60950 or UL1950 or MIL-HDBK 217 or elsewhere?
