The power cord must be rated for the product and for the voltage and current
marked on the product’s electrical ratings label. The voltage and current rating
of the cord should be greater than the voltage and current rating marked on the
product. In addition, the diameter of the wire must be a minimum of 0.75
mm²/18AWG, and the length of the cord must be between 5 feet (1.5 m) and
6½ feet (2 m). If you have questions about the type of power cord to use,
contact your Compaq authorized service provider.
A power cord should be routed so that it is not likely to be walked on or pinched
by items placed upon it or against it. Particular attention should be paid to the
plug, electrical outlet, and the point where the cord exits from the product.
