Can I used a power cord of the Thermaltake Smart SE 630W to power up a power supply that uses 1200W? How can I check the specs of that cable?

hi

Is your mains voltage 115 volts or 220 to 240volts?

Does the mains lead iec plug fit in the psu socket?

In usa at 115. Volts current would be 10 to 11 amps which means you need to look at markings on the cable to see if it is suitable

If 220 to 240 volts current would be about 5 amps and most mains cords would be suitable

Some very high power psu use a mains cable with a larger size iec plug and thicker mains cable
