Using IEC 60320 components in electrical product designs can be beneficial when exporting to global markets. The IEC 60320 standards are a series of standards specific to connectors, inlets, plug connectors, and outlets.

There are a number of benefits that may be gained for an equipment designer when following IEC 60320 standards. The IEC 60320 is the common connector interface throughout the industrialized world. It simplifies the task of specifying a connector to use on a cord set along with a country-specific plug. The IEC 60320 also provides a standard framework to work from for product design and testing. These connectors help prevent improper connections by the design configurations themselves. They provide a uniform connector for similar voltages, thus ensuring a safe connection. Another benefit is that the IEC 60320 standards are accepted globally.

The IEC 60320 AC power inlet is the most commonly used means of connecting a detachable cord set to electrical or electronic equipment. By designing an IEC 60320 power inlet into a product, the manufacturer can attach a cord set (e.g. a country-specific plug on one end and an IEC connector on the other end) just prior to shipment. This allows the equipment manufacturer to make one device for sale worldwide.

Note
International Electro technical Commission (IEC) published IEC 60320 to specify appliance couplers for households and similar general purposes. These have become a de facto standard for the electrical interface between the device and the cord on most detachable power supply cords. Power distribution strips also employ this electrical interface between the source and the output cord.

Unlike NEMA which uses the same identifying series number for both male and female ends i.e. (5-15P to 5-15R) IEC 320 uses a sequential even number for male end and odd number for the mating female end i.e. (C14 to C13).
