RE: Detachable AC Cordset Selection for the EU

Change the current rating to be 12-X A, where X is the current rating at 240V. See Clause 1.7.1 of EN60950. Now you must pick a set of cords that comply with the various sets of voltage and current ratings. A 10A cord will be just fine for the 200-240V portion of the range. Richard Woods

My knee-jerk guess is that you won't be able to find a higher rated cord for Europe. If you do though, it would be nice to know who the vendor is. 10 Amps @ ~200V provides about 2000W. Does your product use this much power? If you really need a rating above 10 Amps, you might consider using a
