Cable to 3 pin socket
1 Answers
Hey there. I have a UPS system running at my home, powering the computer and monitors. However, I am looking to also power my internet equiptment (Router and modem) but these plug into a 3 pin mains socket. Is there any way I can get a Female to male UPS Power cable (http://217.205.137.242/images/APC/OR1750000053 122.jpg)
to go from female to 3 pin UK socket?
Thanks, Matt

If you want to connect up the rest of your gear, the easiest solution is to buy a standard trailing socket and swap the plug with a Male IEC lead

Just make sure you have this socket out of the way, so that the cleaning lady never plugs the hoover into it and ruins your UPS !!!
