Usually, devices that are made by one company are at least partially compatible.
However, does this work in the case of Samsung TVs?
Lately, Ive seen more and more questions about power cables in Samsung TVs.

Are they compatible with other Samsung TVs, and can I use a non-original line?
The short answers are YES and YES.
Samsung makes pretty standard power cables for their TVs.
So if you upgrade to a new TV, it’s possible for you to use the old cable.
However, there are a few downsides to this solution.
Lets take a closer look at how it works.
Of course, if we are talking about more or less modern Samsung TVs.
If you find a Samsung TV produced in 2005, the power cable might be different or even integrated.
Those were slightly different times and production principles.
But modern Samsung TVs use the same power cable.
This makes sense because there is no point in producing several different cables to power the TV.
It would be inconvenient and too expensive.
I would also like to point out that you will not find external power supplies on Samsung TVs.
I dont remember a single Samsung TV with an external power supply.
What power cord using in Samsung TV?
This cord has a C13 plug on one end and a C14 receptacle on the other.
It will have a C19 plug on one end and a C13 jack on the other.
Before using the cable, you should ensure it will fit your Samsung TV.
Can you use your power cord with Samsung TV?
Of course, you might use any third-party cable with your Samsung TV.
If the connector on your cord fits into the TV port, then that cable is ready to use.
However, there are a few cable requirements that I would recommend you check before connecting your Samsung TV.
First, I would not recommend using a very old or damaged cable.
This is because this cable will be transmitting electricity at quite high voltages.
However, for example, you do not have to worry about its length.
