Schurter has expanded its portfolio of rewireable IEC cord connectors, Series 4782 (C13, 70 °C) and 4781 (C15, 120 °C), to include gray and white versions in addition to black.

The added colors allow for distinguishing between multiphases in data centers. The white color option is also suited for medical applications where a clinical cord and inlet coupling is aesthetically preferred. 

The manufacturer says its detachable cord connectors are particularly suited for small series builds with varying cable lengths and country-specific plugs, that would otherwise require large order minimums.  

A protective cable guard with a diameter of 8.5 mm or 10 mm is pre-assembled at the factory. The screw terminals accept cables with cross-sections between a minimum of 3 x 0.75 mm2/18 AWG (0.82 mm2) and a maximum of 3 x 1.5 mm2/14 AWG (2.08 mm2). 

The 4782 and 4781 series are added to an already wide range of Schurter rewireable cord connectors according to the new UL 60320 standard. The parts are safety agency approved for the European, Chinese, Japanese and North American markets for 10/15 A at 250 VAC. No halogens in the cable guard or any other plastic components are used. 

The products are delivered in a package of 50 pieces. Pricing starts around $4.70 each for 100-piece quantities.
