How do I know which connector I need?

Look at the socket on the device — that is where leads differ. Photograph it and send us the picture if you are unsure.

Does a computer lead fit a monitor?

Very often yes, because they use the same type. But check the socket before assuming.

Yes, but in the opposite direction to what you would think: in racks and on power strips, short leads keep order and ease maintenance.

Why not buy the cheapest?

Because it carries mains electricity. Ask for a clear conductor rating and certification — it is a safety matter, not a performance one.

Which type for which device

Mains leads differ at the plug that goes into the device, not at the wall. The most common is the triangular connector used by computers, power supplies and monitors.

There is also the smaller figure-of-eight connector, on printers, receivers and small devices, plus angled types for places with little room behind the furniture.

If you are unsure, photograph the socket on the device and send us the picture — it is the fastest way to find the right one.

Do not economise here

This is the cable that carries mains electricity. A lead with an undersized conductor heats up, and a poorly made plug works loose and arcs.

Ask for a cable with a clear conductor rating and certification. The price difference from an unbranded one is minimal and it is not about performance — it is about safety.

And a practical note: in racks and on power strips, short leads are no luxury. They drastically reduce tangle and make any future work simple.
