A standard commercial AC mains cable is used. The power cable is normally terminated with an female IEC C13 inline socket. The AC mains end is terminated in an AC connector suitable for the local standard and/or the output sockets on an uninterruptible
power supply (UPS). If this is not the case, you must replace the AC connector.
The typical cable length is between 1,5 and 2 meters. If this is too short you must use an extension cable (not recommended), mount a new power outlet within range, or make your own power cable with sufficient length. If you use an uninterruptible power supply (UPS), you can also move the UPS to a different location within range.
NoteThere are substantial differences between American and British nomenclature related to power plugs and sockets. Observe local standards and regulations.
