ojc123 Posted August 23, 2006 Share Posted August 23, 2006 The 'similar to IEC' connectors on two of my preludes are damaged and I've had to fail them during my PAT session. I don't know what they are called so can someone suggest a few search terms so I can find replacements on t'internet. Thanks Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
pritch Posted August 23, 2006 Share Posted August 23, 2006 Ah yes, that. Infuriating, isn't it? Try lighting partners. They list the new parts. Go into their used section and look in connectors. They have both the female line sockets and the male chassis connectors listed. http://usedlighting.co.uk Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
peternewman Posted August 23, 2006 Share Posted August 23, 2006 They're just hot condition IEC's aren't they? Like this: http://www.bulgin.co.uk/Products/IEC_Connectors/iec_images/PX0597_iss2_400px.jpg C15/C16 rather than the normal C13/C14, or on further inspection perhaps C15A/C16A.

ojc123 Posted August 23, 2006 Author Share Posted August 23, 2006 Thanks. A faster reply than I expected. I'll investigate. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Chris Beesley Posted August 23, 2006 Share Posted August 23, 2006 Strand use the super hot IEC called the C15A connector - this has additional notches on the upper shoulders and is not compatible with the HOT IEC's stocked by CPC/Farnell InOne. I did see them on usedlighting recently, also maybe worth trying White Light? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Pete Posted August 23, 2006 Share Posted August 23, 2006 Also make sure that you use the right angle ones where approprate! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Glyn Edwards Posted August 23, 2006 Share Posted August 23, 2006 Brian posted his findings on this subject a bit ago. I think I remember him giving details of a couple of suppliers. Try searching the blue room for "C15A" HTH Glyn Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
