UK Plug to IEC C18 Power Cable
The IEC C18 end is a two-pole, non-grounded male connector; the protective-earth contact of the UK plug is not continued through the IEC C18 interface.
Typical configurations support up to 250V AC and 10A, with 2x0.75mm² and 2x1.0mm² cable options selected according to load, length, fuse, and approval requirements.
Molded plug and connector bodies with integrated strain relief support the cable at common bending points during connection, routing, and equipment installation.
Cable length, wire gauge, cable type, UK plug fuse, IEC C18 molding, color, cable printing, label, logo, and packaging can be customized for OEM and B2B procurement projects.
- Product Description
UK Plug to IEC C18 Power Cable
This UK plug to IEC C18 power cable connects a British BS 1363 wall outlet to compatible equipment requiring a C18 power connection. The cable uses a molded UK plug, a black round cable, and a molded IEC C18 equipment-side connector for non-grounded AC input applications.
The product is built for buyers who need a UK-market power lead with a C18 interface. Typical configurations support up to 250V AC, with current rating, fuse, conductor size, cable type, and certification scope confirmed according to the finished cord-set specification.

Why Choose Our UK to IEC C18 Power Cable?
This cable is intended for equipment manufacturers, replacement-cord distributors, electronics brands, appliance suppliers, and OEM buyers requiring a British plug power cable for C18-compatible devices.
Confirmed IEC C18 Interface
The equipment-side connector is specified as IEC C18 according to the confirmed product requirement. This helps buyers avoid mixing the product with C13, C14, C17, or grounded IEC cord configurations during procurement.
Non-Grounded Two-Core Cable Structure
The IEC C18 interface is used for equipment configurations that do not require protective earth through the IEC connector. The cable should be matched only with compatible devices and approved electrical designs.
Fused UK BS 1363 Plug
The British plug includes a fuse position. The plug fuse must be selected according to the cable rating, connected equipment load, and completed cord-set approval rather than the plug body alone.
OEM-Ready Specification Options
Cable length, wire gauge, cable type, fuse, connector molding, strain-relief shape, color, printed marking, label, logo, and packaging can be configured for equipment bundles, replacement-cord programs, and B2B orders.

Buyer's Insight: This product should be ordered as a UK to IEC C18 power cable according to the confirmed interface requirement. Because the C18 configuration is non-grounded, buyers should verify that the target device is designed for this interface and does not require protective earth through the IEC connector. The finished cord rating must be based on the plug, fuse, conductor size, cable type, connector, and applicable approval.
Professional Applications You Can Trust
For power adapters and compact electronics, this cable provides a UK-market wall plug connection to compatible C18-interface equipment. Common length options help match desktop, retail-packaging, and replacement-cord requirements.
For AV equipment, office electronics, chargers, and small appliances, the molded IEC C18 connector supports a detachable power-cord format. Buyers should confirm the equipment interface before ordering to avoid mismatch with grounded IEC alternatives.
For OEM and distribution programs, the cable can be configured with suitable conductor size, cable jacket, fuse rating, printed marking, labeling, and packaging according to the target market and equipment specification.
Advanced Safety Features
The BS 1363 plug includes a fuse position for the flexible cord and connected load. The selected fuse must match the cable construction and final approved electrical rating.
The IEC C18 interface is a non-grounded configuration. It should only be used with compatible equipment designs where protective earth is not required through the detachable IEC connector.
Molded terminations enclose the conductor connections, while strain relief at both ends supports the cable where repeated bending commonly occurs. Final safety performance depends on the approved plug, fuse, cable, connector, and manufacturing configuration.
Manufacturing Excellence
This UK plug to IEC C18 power cable can be configured for B2B and OEM purchasing programs. Buyers can confirm the cable length, conductor size, cable type, UK plug fuse, IEC connector molding, strain-relief profile, printed marking, label, and packaging before production.
