Tony M Mar 16, 2007:
I think the main reason they (wrongly) call it a 'kettle' connector is because when they first came out in the UK, they were mainly only used on electric kettles. There is a special variant of the 'normal' IEC connector specially designed for hot uses

t�l�phonie C'est pour t�l�phones donc bouilloire, c'est bizarre....

Pourquoi la précision de la paroi froide ??

Je n'aime pas le terme fiche qui peut faire confusion avec "fiche de produit"
Peer comment(s):

disagree Tony M : Sorry, it's nothing to do with cold-wall kettles; there are special types of IEC connectore for 'hot' and 'cold' applications; the 'kettle' bit is really a red herring, but at one time in the UK they were mainly only knwon on kettles...

C'est le cordon électrique classique : celui de l'alimentation d'un moniteur par exemple, mais aussi d'une caisse. Je pense que le lien ne va pas fonctionner vue la longuer de l'adresse. Mais ma googlerie est **cordon IEC 60320 C13** le tout en FR.

Merci !
agree Tony M : Yes, it's called 'cold' because there is also a special 'hot' type, typically used on kettles

fiche de bouilloire

Peer comment(s):

neutral Tony M : The use of 'kettle' here is really a red-herring; at one time, these IEC connectors were not well-known in the UK, and mainly found only on kettles.
