250V 10A C14 Inlet Power Male Plug for Power Supply Unit for Bitmain APW3 APW7

250V 10A C14 Inlet Power Male Plug for Bitmain APW3 / APW7 / APW12 PSU

This 250V 10A IEC320 C14 3-terminal inlet power male plug socket is the replacement AC inlet used on Bitmain APW3, APW7 and APW12 power supply units. It mates with the standard C13 / C14 power cord on the supply side and provides the AC entry point to the PSU's fuse and bridge rectifier.

Built from sturdy plastic and metal construction, the inlet survives repeated plug / unplug cycles in a busy mining farm environment. When the original inlet's pins blacken, loosen or break out of the housing, the C14 plug-in becomes intermittent — replacing the inlet restores a clean low-resistance mains connection.

Specifications

Where the C14 inlet sits in the APW3 / APW7 / APW12

The C14 male inlet is the AC entry point on the side of the Bitmain APW3, APW7 and APW12 PSU enclosure. Mains comes in through the C13 mating cord, passes through the inlet's three pins (Line, Neutral, Earth) and reaches the PSU's fuse, EMI filter and bridge rectifier. A loose or scorched inlet causes intermittent boot, brown-out resets or audible arcing under load.

Compatibility

Direct mechanical replacement for the C14 male AC inlet on Bitmain APW3, APW7 and APW12 PSUs. Confirm the inlet's mounting style (snap-in vs panel-mount, with or without solder lugs) before ordering. Use with the matching C13 / C20 PSU power cords for the supply side.

Common failure symptoms

• Inlet pins visibly blackened or pitted from arcing on the live and neutral contacts
• C13 plug feels loose in the inlet — barrel has lost its spring retention
• PSU resets randomly under sustained load — intermittent contact at the inlet
• Audible buzzing or sparking when the C13 cord is plugged in under load
• Plastic housing cracked, exposing live pins from the rear of the PSU panel

Frequently asked questions

Is this the same inlet on APW3, APW7 and APW12?

Yes — the C14 3-terminal male inlet is shared across the APW3, APW7 and APW12 PSU enclosures.

What current rating is it?

10A at 250V. For higher-current PSU positions that use C19 / C20 connectors, see the C14↔C19 power cord in related products.

Does it ship with mounting screws?

The inlet ships as the connector body. Reuse the original mounting hardware from the PSU enclosure.

What power cords work with it?

Any C13 → wall-plug cord rated for at least 10A / 250V. For longer custom runs, we stock C13↔C20 and C14↔C19 extension cords for mining PSU service.
