Yes many computer cords using it are too thin, I've seen some as small as 18ga which is only good for 8 amps. But - the C13 is available with cords up to 16ga rated for 13amps and those are what you need.i have this cables come with computer C13 10A-230V (0.75mm) why there power supply using C13 in first place ? they should use C19 to find cord with 2mm Example for North American 110vac http://www.mcmaster.com/#71535k43/=146kylu or http://www.internationalconfig.com/cordhelp.asp#iec_60320 Yes the C19 plugs/sockets are rated for higher current but are also harder to find.

EDIT: Oh I think I see your problem. The 2mm is referring to the width so something like the European equivalent to American wire gauge. EDIT2: http://www.cablestogo.com/product/03138/2.5m-14-awg-european-power-cord-cee7-7-to-iec320c13 |
