Monitor Power Cord issue

Hi,
My BENQ monitor power cord plug is big and wont fit in regular surge protectors,nor it fits in wall socket.
This is why i was using my old desktop monitor power cord which I have lost recently.

Is there any way i can use the power cord that came with monitor by attaching it to some other 3-pin connector plug ?

go to the computer bazaar, and ask the same shopkeeper/ in some component shops?
there are many sizes of 3-pin connectors available in market,
GO ALONG WITH THAT POWER CORD, and show it to them, they'll help you.

lol yes, I thought of buying it online if anyone here knows what it is called or any web store which sells it.

Thanks

there are various size available in 3 pin connectors, but it will be more better if you go out in market with that cord and buy the connector for the same,
as it will ensure that have got what you needed...
buying online is a bit risk in terms of compatibility with the cord,as i think it...
Don't you think so?

or you may look for if there is any info given on its manual or website, or you can google the problem like - 3 pin connector for benq (model no.) monitor power cord... but chances are rare...

Hmm..will visit local shops then.
