electrical connections. It has two non-interchangeable types of
connectors, A type (color coding blue) for power input and B type
(color coding gray) for power output. The connectors are designed
to prevent short circuits.

The product is approved based on the IEC/EN 60320-1 standard and
has a rating of 250 V AC / 16 A. It is suitable for use with wire
sizes ranging from 1.5 to 2.5 mm2 and cable outer diameters ranging
from 6.0 to 12.0 mm (for A type) and 10.0 to 16.0 mm (for B
type).

The product can be used with various types of cables, including
IEC/EN 60320-1 cables such as H07RN-F, H05RN-F, and H05VV-F, as
well as UL 60320-1 and CAN/CSA-C22.2 No. 60320-1 cables such as
SOOW, SJOOW, SJTOOW.
