Frequently Asked Questions
Q: What power cord do I need for a trade show booth light?
A: You need an IEC C13 power cord matched to your venue's outlet standard — US (NEMA 5-15P), EU Schuko (CEE 7/7), UK (BS 1363), or AU (AS 3112). All connect to the C14 inlet on your display fixture.
Q: How long should my booth power cord be?
A: 3 meters (9.8 ft) is the standard for most trade show booth setups, providing enough reach from floor outlets or power strips to overhead or panel-mounted lights.
Q: Can I use the same power cord at different international shows?
A: The C13 end is universal, but the wall plug end is region-specific. We recommend keeping one cable per region if you exhibit internationally.
