Czech term or phrase: přívodní šňůra/kabel
Předpokládám, že je to to samé, co napájecí kabel.

Šlo by to přeložit jako POWER CORD? Nebo to prodloužit na MAINS POWER CORD?

Ukázka použití (jde o definici typu rizika): "Vytržení přívodní šňůry nešetrnou, nežádoucí nebo zakázanou manipulací."

Děkuji.

Lead wire


Explanation:
"lead wire" seems to match the literal translation a bit better than power cord, but not sure about the specific context.
