UK BS 1363 Plug to Dual IEC C13 Y-Splitter Power Cord

The cable features a UK three-pin input plug and two IEC C13 female output connectors. A fused BS 1363 plug configuration is typical, while the exact fuse value, cable size, electrical rating, and compliance scope must be selected according to the combined load and destination-market requirements.

Why Choose Our UK Plug to Dual IEC C13 Splitter Cable?

This splitter cord is designed for equipment manufacturers, IT accessory suppliers, system integrators, office-equipment distributors, and project buyers requiring two IEC C13 connections from one UK power source.

Two IEC C13 Outputs from One UK Plug

The Y-splitter structure supplies two equipment connections through one mains plug. This can reduce separate outlet requirements when a computer and monitor, two displays, or other compatible devices are installed together.

Compatible with IEC C14 Equipment Inlets

Each IEC C13 female connector mates with a compatible IEC C14 male appliance inlet. The interface is widely used on computers, monitors, printers, AV equipment, laboratory instruments, and other grounded electronic devices.

Grounded Three-Conductor Construction

The cable carries line, neutral, and protective earth to both branches. This maintains a grounded connection for compatible Class I equipment when the cord is correctly manufactured, connected, and used within its confirmed electrical rating.

Configurable Y-Splitter Layout

The input lead, splitter position, individual branch lengths, wire gauge, cable type, fuse value, and molded connector profile can be adjusted to suit the equipment layout and installation space.

Complete Product Specifications

Buyer's Insight: The current rating applies to the complete Y-splitter assembly, not independently to each IEC C13 connector. The combined current drawn by both connected devices must remain within the lowest rating of the UK plug, fuse, input cable, splitter junction, branch conductors, and IEC C13 connectors.

Professional Applications You Can Trust

For desktop computer installations, the two IEC C13 branches can supply a computer and monitor from one UK outlet. Custom branch lengths help route each connector to its corresponding IEC C14 inlet without excessive spare cable.

For office workstations and AV systems, limited outlet availability can complicate equipment placement. The Y-splitter design supports two compatible loads through one fused plug while retaining grounded connections to both devices.

For equipment racks and test benches, the input lead, splitter location, and individual branch lengths can be configured around the physical layout. This helps keep the junction away from sharp bends and crowded connector areas.

Advanced Safety Features

The three-conductor structure distributes protective earth to both IEC C13 connectors. Ground continuity must be maintained through the plug, input cable, molded splitter, branch cables, and connected equipment.

A BS 1362 fuse is typically incorporated into a BS 1363 plug. The selected fuse value should protect the cord and connected equipment configuration rather than being chosen solely according to the maximum rating of the wall outlet.

The molded terminations enclose internal conductor connections, while strain-relief sections support the cable near the plug, splitter junction, and both IEC C13 connectors. Final safety performance and compliance depend on the complete approved construction.

Manufacturing Excellence

This UK plug to dual IEC C13 splitter cable can be configured for OEM equipment, replacement-cord, and B2B distribution programs. Buyers can define the electrical rating, fuse value, cable type, conductor size, input length, branch lengths, splitter position, connector molding, cable printing, labeling, and packaging before production.

Frequently Asked Questions

Q: Can each IEC C13 output carry the complete cord rating?

A: The complete cord rating is shared by both branches. The combined current drawn by both connected devices must not exceed the confirmed rating of the full assembly.

Q: What equipment connects to the two IEC C13 connectors?

A: Each IEC C13 female connector mates with a compatible IEC C14 male inlet commonly used on computers, monitors, printers, AV equipment, and other grounded electronic devices.

Q: Does the UK plug include a fuse?

A: A BS 1362 fuse is typical for a BS 1363 plug configuration. The actual plug standard and fuse value must be confirmed according to the cable rating, connected load, and destination-market requirements.

Q: Can the two output branches have different lengths?

A: Yes. The input lead, splitter position, first branch, and second branch can be dimensioned separately according to the equipment layout.

Custom Solutions for Your Business

Input and Branch Lengths: Specify the distance from the UK plug to the splitter and the individual length of each IEC C13 branch. Custom dimensions help match paired devices with different inlet positions.

Wire Gauge & Cable Type: Common options include 3G0.75mm² and 3G1.0mm², with 3G1.5mm² available for suitable constructions. Final selection depends on current, total length, flexibility, and applicable requirements.

Fuse Configuration: The fuse value can be matched to the cable construction and intended connected load, subject to the applicable plug and product requirements.

Splitter & Connector Molding: Splitter position, branch angle, strain-relief profile, connector molding, and cable exit direction can be adjusted for equipment integration.

Branding & Packaging: Custom cable printing, labels, logo, individual packaging, and carton marking are available upon request.
