    Is this AC power cord connector a standard one? The pins seems to be rotated 90 degrees.

    This ATX power supply unit (Silverstone ST1500) did not come with the cord and I am hoping to be able to get the power cord off ebay/Amazon/Digikey once it can be identified

    It looks like it is C19/C20 type connector

    enter image description here

    from Wikipedia:

    Earthed, 16 A, polarized. This coupler is used for some IT applications where higher currents are required, as for instance, on high-power workstations and servers, uninterruptible power supplies, power distribution units, large network routers, switches, blade enclosures, and similar equipment. It is rectangular and has pins parallel to the long axis of the coupler face.

    Looks like you're looking for a IEC 60320 C19 to standard mains connector, like so. Of note, these cables are used commonly for things like UPS, server/rackmount equipment, etc.

    What does I.T.E stand for when it comes to power supplys?

    I wish I could give you more but I have a AC adaptor which I am trying to find ( as it's ... erm kaput ) and it has only a I.T.E power supply number.

    I can't seem to find where this acronym comes from. Also I wonder if there is a guide to the types of output socket connectors there are as I can't seem to find one that looks the same as mine ( 4 pin male output socket ).

    Thanks everyone

    I.T.E. stands for Information Technology Equipment

    There are certain standards, such as in the EU, specifically for ITE that dictate tolerances for electromagnetic radiation etc.
