Buy CONKTL LD 18M black power lead (1.8 m) for lab and desktop electronics. Check stock at Communica Samrand, compare specs, and request bulk quotes.

1.8 m length balances reach and tidy benches for test equipment.
Verify conductor rating and plug type for South African outlets.
Check Samrand availability, branch pickup and bulk quote options.
The CONKTL LD 18M black power lead is a 1.8-metre mains cable commonly used for desktop power supplies, bench equipment, monitors and many small appliances in electronics workspaces. Available in IEC/C13 and appliance plug variants depending on regional plug style, this lead balances flexibility and durability for prototyping labs, student workshops and maintenance benches.
Common specifications for a CONKTL LD 18M lead (confirm exact SKU before purchase):
| Parameter | Typical Value |
|---|---|
| Length | 1.8 m |
| Colour | Black |
| Connector (equipment end) | IEC C13 (common) or appliance plug variant |
| Conductor | H05VV-F / H07RN-F style flexible mains conductor (check label) |
| Rated current | Typically 10 A or 13 A depending on variant |
| Temperature / Flexibility | Flexible insulation for bench use; check spec sheet for temp range |
Always verify the printed markings on the cable or product label for conductor type and current rating before connecting to equipment. Mains leads vary by country plug standard (power leads specifications and features) (South Africa typically uses Type M/N adapters in some installations), so confirm plug compatibility for your site.
For students and makers, a spare CONKTL LD 18M is a pragmatic bench accessory-use it for test rigs, Raspberry Pi/mini-PC power bricks (when the brick accepts IEC), monitors and other equipment that specify an IEC inlet. See best power leads for electronics projects for related recommendations.
Check the equipment inlet and local mains plug type before ordering. In South Africa, mains voltage is nominally 230 V AC; ensure the lead and connected equipment are rated appropriately. If you need an adapter for a specific wall plug, factor that into procurement. For permanent installations, consider strain relief or cable clamps to avoid mechanical stress on the inlet.

The above ASCII wiring is illustrative. Always ensure plugs are correctly wired and fused where required. When servicing equipment, disconnect mains and follow safe-work procedures.
Communica stocks a broad range of mains leads and power accessories across the Samrand head office/warehouse and other branches. Check online stock for the Samrand, Pretoria CBD or Cape Town branches to confirm immediate availability. For bulk purchases (education labs or procurement teams), request a quote for itemised VAT invoices and delivery options.
Example: equipping a university electronics lab with 40 bench leads. If an individual CONKTL LD 18M is priced at an estimated ZAR 120 each (example range ZAR 90-150 depending on supplier and spec), the approximate cost is ZAR 4 800 for 40 units before VAT and delivery-request a bulk quote for exact figures. These numbers are illustrative; check current online pricing and lead times for firm costs.
For classroom or lab orders, include spare leads and compatible adapters in the initial purchase to reduce downtime. Use Communica branch pickup to inspect items on collection where practical.
