The main difference between PowerCON and TrueCON is safety and usability. Standard PowerCON connectors (blue/grey types) are designed for secure, locking power connections but cannot be plugged or unplugged under load. They’re great for indoor AV setups where the power is turned off before connecting. That’s why many buyers search for PowerCON to PowerCON cables, PowerCON extensions, and PowerCON cable suppliers in the UK for stage, studio, and event equipment.
TrueCON (also called powerCON TRUE1) is the upgraded version—it’s IP65-rated, more rugged, and can be safely connected or disconnected while live. This makes it ideal for outdoor events, lighting rigs, and heavy-duty environments.
For high-quality, durable cables, Raiden Industries offers reliable PowerCON- and TrueCON-compatible power cables engineered for professional use, making them a trusted choice for AV companies and rental houses across the UK.
