[SOLVED] PSU power connector does not fit

[Windrid3r]

hey guys , just finished my first build.
i have the Straight power 11 PSU from be quiet.
and when i go to power my PC with the power connector they included the CEE 7/7 Schuko plug . i'm from the middle east and it does not fit the electric plug. do you think the local store i bought from will have right plug or do i need to get an adapter?
be quiet's manual says i shouldn't use any other power connector than what they supply or it will cause problems later on.

they included the CEE 7/7 Schuko plug - who included the plug - Be Quiet or your PC?

PC Specs?

the psu of be quit came with this European plug
my google skills came with a solution Europe > Israeli adapter.
i will try to get it for free from the store i bought the pc from.
giving you my pc spec has nothing to do with it.
thanks anyway.

From what I've Google'd,Israel and EU have 230V 50Hz electricity. So you just cut off CEE 7/7 Schuko plug from PSU cable and replace it with plug that fits your wall socket -just make sure your wiring is correct!

Just buy (or get from that shop) a psu cable that fits the socket used in your country.

i do have an old power connector that fits, just because i read that warning in the manual i decided not to do it. do you guys think its <Mod Edit> or it can really cause damage if i don't use the cable provided?

Youi should be able to find a cable that will fit the PSU and have an end to fit your country's wall sockets at most electrical stores in your country.

If the old cable is of good quality and thick should there be no problem.

I would buy a new power cable that fits.
