IEC C8 Panel Mount Plug Adapter
The Unique-Bargains C8 panel mount plug adapter provides a straight two-pin IEC inlet rated for AC 250V and 2.5A. It suits equipment manufacturers and repair technicians who need a compact power entry point for low-current devices. Copper contacts ensure reliable conductivity. Each pack contains five identical units.
Sustained Load Behaviour
The copper terminals maintain stable contact resistance during continuous operation at the rated 2.5A. The straight pin orientation reduces mechanical stress on the solder joints when the chassis flexes. The 28 by 25 by 16mm body fits tight panel cut-outs without obstructing adjacent components. No active cooling is required at this current level.
Upgrade Context
This adapter replaces worn or damaged C8 inlets on appliance chassis and power distribution panels. The jump is worthwhile when the original inlet shows discolouration, loose retention or intermittent contact. It is not for applications requiring three-pin grounding, higher current ratings or alternative mounting styles such as snap-in or flange configurations.

Questions about this item
Does the C8 panel-mount inlet run warm when supplying 2.5 A continuously?
The copper contacts and 250 V AC rating are sized for the full 2.5 A load, so temperature rise stays within normal limits for this connector class.
What panel cut-out and hardware are needed to mount the 28 × 25 mm straight C8 socket?
A rectangular opening of roughly 28 mm by 25 mm plus mounting screws or a snap-in flange will secure the 16 mm deep body.
Will the straight C8 inlet mate with the figure-8 leads already fitted to older Class II equipment?
Yes, the two-pin straight C8 socket accepts the standard figure-8 plug found on legacy double-insulated devices.
