Power cord compatibility

I bought 2017 iMac in India. And now moving to USA. Is the power cord compatible to ac power inlet in USA?(it is 10A power cord and voltage specified as 250V) but i hope it is compatible to 110V as well.

Can I use my US 2017 27" iMac in Europe? Power cord says "10A 125V" but Europe Voltage is 220V Hi everyone, I hope you are staying safe and healthy! I have purchased a 2017 iMac in the US. The specs of the iMac itself clearly state that the iMac could be used in a 220V country as you can see in this screenshot ("100-240V"). However, the power cord that came with the iMac says "10 A 125V" (see screenshot), suggesting that I cannot use this cord in a 220V country. Could a simple adapter like the one below work or do I need to buy a new cord? In most forums, people state that the iMac is dual voltage and adapts to the 220V automatically but no body addresses whether the cord that says "125V" can be used. Could this adapter work even if the cord says "125V" Thank you for your help!

Difference in Voltage Hi, I bought a Imac desktop 27" 3.1GHZ last August 2020 in Canada. But I am going to travel and use it in Singapore. The voltage in Canada is 110 and 240 in Singapore. 1) So can I just buy a new power cord in Singapore? as I am not sure if I can just change like that 2) or does it work with an adapter? As I foresee the adapter may slow things down. Please advise. Thanks.

iMac Pro, electric cord Hi. I brought my iMac Pro from NY to Israel. Ny has 110V outlets and so the electric cord is suitable to use with 110V. Israel, like Europe has 220V outlets. Is there an official Apple electric cord that I should get in Israel? If not, can I use an Israeli regular cord (I guess it's called a C13 cord)? IMPORTANT, IS IT DANGEROUS TO THE COMPUTER TO USE A REGULAR (NON APPLE) CORD? Or, is the best solution buying an electricity 220 to 110 convertor and using the original US cord, with the convertor? Thanks S

Yes. You’ll need a round to flat adapter which you can purchase from any electronics retailer.

No, the iMac adapts automatically to input voltage.
