Wrong PSU power cord?

I bought one of these a few weeks ago, only just had the chance to put my PC together, and noticed that the power cord wasn't a normal one...

What is that? It doesn't fit into the back of the PSU so I can only imagine it's a mistake.

Cloverleaf more common for laptop chargers and some monitor power packs.

You need a 'kettle lead' for your psu.

This is the power cord that came supplied with the PSU. I have a proper one lying around but it's pretty pathetic...

EDIT: Sorry I missed some info out from my post, I bought a power supply (http://www.overclockers.co.uk/showproduct.php?prodid=CA-027-SS&groupid=701&catid=123&subcat=2383) and this is the cable it came with.

Pop a message into the customer services bit on here, they will probably send you one out.

Seasonic are usually good, checked your bag of cables?

If still don't have one drop OC a message explaining the issue and no doubt they'll ship you one out as it's not your fault
