Can the monitor power cable and the host power cable be used interchangeably?

Article Source:Kinri Energy | Author:Kinri Energy | Issuing Time:2024.04.15
No, it's not possible. Although the monitor power cable and the host power cable may look similar, they cannot be interchanged due to differences in operating voltage and current.



The difference between monitor power cable and host power cable

The monitor power cable and the host power cable look very similar, but there are actually significant differences.

The working voltage of the monitor power cable is 220V with a current of less than 2A, while the working voltage of the host power cable is between 100V-240V with a current of 5A-20A. This means that if the monitor power cable is mixed with the host power cable, it may cause the power cable to be unable to withstand the high voltage of the host current, which may damage the power cable and even cause hazards such as fire.

Why can't we mix and match

Voltage difference

The working voltage of the monitor power cable is 220V, while the working voltage of the host power cable is between 100V-240V. Therefore, if the power cable of the host is inserted into the monitor, its voltage may be too high, leading to short circuit damage to the monitor or causing a fire.

Different currents

The current of the host power cable is between 5A-20A, while the current of the monitor power cable is less than 2A. Insert the host power cable into the monitor. The power cable cannot withstand the high voltage of the host current, and the power required by the monitor cannot reach its peak state.

Conclusion

Although the monitor power cable and the host power cable look similar, their operating voltage and current are significantly different. In order to ensure the normal use of equipment and the safety of users, we must follow the correct usage methods. Therefore, the monitor power cable and the host power cable cannot be interchanged to avoid unnecessary losses and dangers.
