Beam IEC to Mains Lead (UK Plug)

The Beam IEC to Mains Lead (UK) is a professional-grade power accessory designed for reliable performance in business-critical and industrial environments. Built to meet United Kingdom and British electrical standards, it is suitable for daily use with a wide range of satellite docking stations and terminal power supplies.

This cable is a standard 3-pin UK mains power lead (BS 1363 to C13). It is the essential connection required to bridge a local AC power outlet to the Beam ISD951 AC Plug Pack or other Beam-branded power adapters that utilise an IEC input. This lead ensures a secure, grounded, and fused connection for fixed-site satellite installations across the UK, Ireland, Hong Kong, and Singapore.

Key Product Features

• BS 1363 Compliant: Fully certified for use with standard UK 230V AC power outlets, featuring the mandatory insulated pins for enhanced safety.
• Integrated Safety Fuse: Equipped with a replaceable internal fuse (typically 5A or 13A) to protect the satellite docking station from over-current faults.
• Standard IEC C13 Connector: Universally compatible with Beam AC power adapters and professional maritime bridge electronics.
• Grounded 3-Pin Design: Features a dedicated earth pin to ensure user safety and protect sensitive satellite electronics from electrical surges.
• Durable Strain Relief: Constructed with heavy-duty moulded connectors to withstand frequent use in demanding field environments.

What’s Included

• 1x Beam IEC to Mains Lead (UK 3-Pin Fused Plug to IEC C13)

Installation & Usage

This lead is designed for simple, secure integration into your satellite communication power chain.
