Explanation:
C'est le cordon électrique classique : celui de l'alimentation d'un moniteur par exemple, mais aussi d'une caisse. Je pense que le lien ne va pas fonctionner vue la longuer de l'adresse. Mais ma googlerie est **cordon IEC 60320 C13** le tout en FR.

agree  Tony M: Yes, it's called 'cold' because there is also a special 'hot' type, typically used on kettles

neutral  Tony M: The use of 'kettle' here is really a red-herring; at one time, these IEC connectors were not well-known in the UK, and mainly found only on kettles.

disagree  Tony M: Sorry, it's nothing to do with cold-wall kettles; there are special types of IEC connectore for 'hot' and 'cold' applications; the 'kettle' bit is really a red herring, but at one time in the UK they were mainly only knwon on kettles...
