In Reply to: premium IEC adapters posted by gkirkos on August 14, 2015 at 07:19:24:
I would put a 20A IEC inlet on the piece of gear as ANY adapter will degrade some amount.20A IEC's are so much better and should become the standard. This really has little to do with current handing capability. The amount of surface area and the length/width of the 20A "prongs" makes for a FAR SUPERIOR connection both electrically and as important physically. The horizontally vs vertically mounted blades (prongs) also play a role.
I'm sure many here have seen how easy a 15A IEC can fall out or come loose due to the heavy power cords used today. The 15A simply doesn't have enough "prong" length. Then when they start to fit loose on top of that it's really bad.
If you have a few of both you know. If you don't have a 20A IEC then go to a dealer and plug in and unplug a 20A IEC.
