Millions of Power Cords Recalled by HP and How to Avoid This


Avoid this kind of headline and specify MEGA Electronics for your next project!



MEGA Electronics uses LME-registered Grade "A" Cathode, which contains 99.99% copper! Still the best raw material for 100% conductivity!



If a manufacturer adds non-copper alloys into the furnace the result can be copper rods with reduced conductivity potentially leading to fire. UL requires that conductors in AC cables must be pure copper.



One of our major customers informed us that they experienced substandard cables from China which were using recycled copper or even copper-coated aluminum which is strictly forbidden by UL as a serious safety problem. Concerned?
