The C14+ Switch is a panel-mount IEC 60320-C14 power input module that integrates a standard C14 power input interface with an integrated power switch into a compact component. This module uses common IEC power cables and provides a dedicated power switch control point at the device chassis for convenient and safe power management.

The component features a rugged rocker switch or toggle switch that works with the C14 input interface, simplifying wiring and providing clear manual control of AC power. It is ideal for industrial chassis, test equipment, server racks, audio/video systems, 3D printers, and other electronic devices requiring convenient panel-mount power switching.

C14+Switch FAQ

It’s an IEC-60320 C14 inlet connector integrated with a manual on/off power switch in one panel-mount unit. It lets you plug in standard IEC power cords and control the mains supply without additional parts.

Having the switch built into the inlet module lets you reduce wiring complexity, save chassis space, and give users a simple, accessible way to turn equipment on or off without external switches or cables.

Most IEC C14 inlet modules with a switch are rated for up to around 10 A at 250 VAC, which matches the standard rating for IEC C14 connections used in a wide range of equipment.

These power entry modules are usually panel-mount designs with either snap-in or screw mounting for secure installation on equipment enclosures.

It’s commonly used in industrial controls, lab and test instruments, IT racks, consumer electronics, 3D printers, and any application that benefits from local mains-power control right at the device panel.

Some variants may include an illuminated rocker switch to show power status, but not every model has this feature, check the specific product details.
