The Importance of Hospital Power Cords for the Medical Industry

hospital-grade-cords

When sourcing power cords for your hospital or clinic, ensuring they meet strict industry requirements is crucial. Standard power cords from a home improvement store aren’t suitable for medical grade equipment and using them places your patients and staff at risk.

In North America, hospitals, clinics, and dental offices must use medical-grade power strips and cords in any situation where patients could have contact with cables. This includes x-ray machinery, breathing equipment, dental cleaning tools, and certain medical devices.

Hospital power cables ensure consistent grounding and are designed for stability against extreme bending or harm without suffering damage. These power cords are tested against strict quality standards to protect patients, staff, and users from electrical shock or danger. Make sure you use approved hospital power cords for all your medical industry equipment.

The Auto-Lock®: Guaranteeing a Steadfast Connection

C14_C19_5287Some people have two left feet.  I believe that I have two left feet and a third invisible foot that exists only to trip me in very important moments. It’s an issue. During my senior prom, while showing off my signature Hammer moves, I tripped and unplugged the DJ booth and all of the lights, resulting in complete darkness and silence for about ten minutes. In college, while rushing to finish a project, I tripped over a power cord in the computer lab which turned off every single computer, resulting in a sprint for my life as a mob of caffeinated procrastinators chased me through the quad at 3 am.

Storage facilities need to supply power to all of their mainframes. The OEM marketplace is well aware of the necessity of power supply. But how do you guarantee this?
