What current kettle lead do i need

I have a 600w psu that can go up to 44 amps but the input is 5Amps.Will a 5a kettle lead sufficent as most leads i have found are 5a or do i need one like a 13a one.
Cheers

5A is fine. The 44A is at 12V presumably, not the 230VAC input.

The input charactoristics are 230 vac , frequency 50-60 hz and current 5a

44A at 230V would be impressive, you'd also need a dedicated 10mm circuit for it as that's more than most electric showers use.

Your cable will be fine

A 600W PSU would never draw more than 3A.
