EN.

General: The Gigawatt PowerSync Bulk powercord is a high-quality power cord that is cut per meter from the roll. Each conductor in the Gigawatt PowerSync Bulk consists of 10 strands of OFHC copper which together provide a total cross-section of 2.0mm². It is therefore a semi-solidcore cable, not hundreds of thin strands, but instead 10 thick OFHC copper strands. This gives you the sound characteristics of solidcore conductors, but the flexibility of a stranded cable. The Gigawatt PowerSync Bulk can be used to make power cords yourself, or you can use it as an installation cable, in which case it is a more flexible alternative to the stiff Gigawatt LC-Y Evo which uses 4.0mm² solidcore conductors. As an installation cable, we still recommend the Gigawatt LC-Y Evo, but in homes where the LC-Y Evo needs to be pulled through a conduit with many right angles etc., the Gigawatt PowerSync Bulk is an excellent alternative.

To make power cords, you can order Schuko, C15 IEC or C19 IEC connectors from Gigawatt. These are available with nickel-plated connectors, gold-plated connectors or Rhodium connectors.

The Gigawatt PowerSync Bulk also contains 7 loose, unshielded copper strands, which are connected to the cable's shielding. The intention is to connect these to the ground conductor on the output side, so you actively connect the shielding to ground. On the other side of the cable, you cut off these 7 loose strands so you don't suffer from a ground loop. If you use the Gigawatt PowerSync Bulk as an installation cable, you connect the loose strands to ground on the meter box side, on the other side you cut off the unshielded strands again. If you want to use the Gigawatt PowerSync Bulk as a power cord, you connect the unshielded strands to the Schuko connector which goes into the outlet, on the other side where you mount an IEC connector, you cut off the unshielded wire again.

Sound characteristics: The Gigawatt PowerSync Bulk sounds very expressive and transparent, but with a refined and natural character. For the price/quality, an exceptionally well-constructed cable. As an installation cable, we still recommend a pure solid-core cable such as the Gigawatt LC-Y Evo, but the Gigawatt PowerSync Bulk comes very close.
