Legislation and Compliance
RoHS Certificate of Compliance
EU Directives 2011/65/EU and 2015/863 restrict the use of the 10 substances below in the manufacture of specified types of electrical equipment.
Whilst this restriction does not legally apply to components, it is recognised that component “compliance” is relevant to many customers.
RS definition of RoHS Compliance:
- The product does not contain any of the restricted substances in concentrations and applications banned by the Directive,
- and for components, the product is capable of being worked on at the higher temperatures required by lead–free soldering
The restricted substances and maximum allowed concentrations in the homogenous material are, by weight:
| Substance | Concentration |
| Lead | 0.1% |
| Mercury | 0.1% |
| PBB (Polybrominated Biphenyls) | 0.1% |
| PBDE ( Polybrominated Diphenyl Ethers) | 0.1% |
| Hexavalent Chromium | 0.1% |
| Cadmium | 0.01% |
| DEHP (Bis (2-Ethylhexl) phthalate) | 0.1% |
| BBP (Benzyl butyl phthalate) | 0.1% |
| DBP (Dibutyl phthalate) | 0.1% |
| DIBP (Diisobutyl phthalate) | 0.1% |
The supplier of the item listed below has informed RS Components that the product is "RoHS Compliant".
RS Components has taken all reasonable steps to confirm this statement. Information relates only to products sold on or after the date of this certificate.

Product Details
IEC and International Leads
A range of electrical appliance connecting leads, the majority of which are terminated with connectors that conform to IEC 60320. The IEC (International Electrotechnical Commission) is the international standards and conformity assessment body. The drawing illustrates the range of connector types offered within this section - The 'odd' 'C' numbers refer to a socket type connector - mains input - and the 'even' 'C' numbers refer to a plug type connector - the appliance inlet.
RS Pro IEC C13 to IEC C14 LSZH Extension Cord
From RS Pro a high quality and durable power cable assembly or power extension cord for connecting a computer to a monitor or printer or extending an existing power lead. This extension cord is fully equipped with an IEC C13 type connector on one end and an IEC C14 connector on the other. The cable features integrated strain reliefs that provide additional protection and support to the connectors and protects them against damage from excessive bending.
Moulded Connectors with Integral Lead
What is a Power Cable assembly?
Power cable assemblies are electrical cables that are pre-terminated with a plug or socket connector. Power cable assemblies can be terminated with connectors on both ends of the cable, as in this case, or just one. Depending on the application, there are various types to suit a wide range of requirements.
What are IEC C13 and IEC C14 Connectors?
The IEC C13 and IEC C14 connectors on either end of this lead have 3 pins, a rated current of 10 A and a maximum temperature rating of 70°C, and are sometimes referred to as ’cold connectors’. IEC connectors conform to a set of specifications called IEC-60320 laid down by the IEC (International Electrotechnical Commission) to make sure they meet common global design standards.
What is a Low Smoke Zero Halogen Lead?
The lead of this cable assembly is classified as LSZH which stands for Low Smoke Zero Halogen. This lead conforms to the harmonised cable code H05Z1Z1-F with both insulation and sheath made from a Polyolefin-based thermoplastic compound. This compound produces limited smoke and no halogen when exposed to high sources of heat. Low smoke zero halogen cable reduces the amount of toxic and corrosive gas emitted during combustion
Features and Benefits
• Flexible LSZH lead conforming to Harmonisation code H05Z1Z1-F
• Terminated with IEC C14 and C13 connector
• Rated at 250 V ac, 10 A maximum
• Fully moulded connector design for strength and durability
• Reliable integrated strain relief for connection support and protection
What is This Cable Assembly Used With?
These IEC C13 to C14 extension leads are for use with IEC Class I appliances and are used in computer equipment for interconnecting and powering PCs and peripherals such as monitors and printers. They can also be used for extending an existing power connection. The C13 connector plugs directly into a device with a C14 inlet while the male C14 connector plugs into another power cord. These IEC extension power cords are commonly used in data centres for providing connections between PDU (Power Distribution Unit) and UPS (Uninterruptible Power Supply) devices and equipment with a C14 input.
