20 Amp Power cable--work with "any" 20 amp unit?

I have a 20 amp Running Springs Power Cable--the Crown Jewel--however I intend upon using it with another brand of condtioner that is not Running Springs, but still 20 amps---my question---will connecter that plugs into back of power unit, fit universally? or---is the Running Springs design in back of unit for plugging in---different than others? Just curious--I may need an adapter if so---feedback would be appreciated. I am only familiar with 15 amp items---

Well my DIY cord is 12G and my line (12G) is on a 20A breaker and my wall sockets are also 20A so I am covered everywhere other than the 15A termination on the plug end of my DIY cord if I want to follow the UL guidelines/rules.

I guess the "right" and safest way to alter my cord is to acquire 20A terminations for both ends...

No I am pretty sure I got your point but was just saying that if I wanted to be completely lined up I would have everything from the box to the back of the preamp lined up with 20A rated products including the 20A plug for power cord going to the wall which will be the case when my terminations arrive and I swap the ends. No doubt its overkill but it will leave no open issues...

I've always preferred the 20 amp IAC terminal, a much solider connection.
