20amp IEC connector with a 15amp plug PC? ??


I m puzzle what is the difference between a PC with a 20amp IEC and one with 15amp IEC but same 15amp plug and drawing from the same circuit? Noticed most PC with 20amp IEC are sold with 15amp plug. Currently using a power amp which accepts only 20amp IEC. TQ you in advance

Rex, has it right and in the proper perspective. Even if one's amp is pulling 1200 watts, that is 10 amps current. At turn on or start-up the amp might 'pull' more amps to charge the capacitors, but then that is for a 'miili-second' and no cause for concern.
