You mean Pure Power 11 FM? Other Power Power 11 doesn't have 650w in the line-up. It's 400/500/600/700w. FM is 550/650/750w.

That says to me the lead that connects to the mains.

Just use any UK kettle-type lead.

The power lead is detachable and plugs into the back of the psu as is normal. So just buy the ok version of the cable and use that. it shows right there in multiple pictures that it is disconnected.

Standard kettle leads are rated for up to 3000 watts.

Yes... it's the PSU that does the work.

 

A 600w PSU only needs a 3 amp fuse (in the mains lead) which a 180w PSU would be more than happy with, too..

You want to use the be quiet! as a replacement for a 180w PSU in a prebuild? What prebuild is it exactly?
