Power Adapter
The W520 comes with a special 170W AC adapter (P/N 0A36227) that is currently not shipped with any other Thinkpad. Note that it is different from the W700 170W AC adapter (P/N 41R4421). The W520 AC adapter is larger but lighter than the W510 135W AC adapter.
All newer (20V) Thinkpad AC adapters have a compatible plug with the W520, but not all of them will work due to power constraints. Some work but the W520 will reduce throttle its CPU/GPU. The following table shows which AC adapters can be used:
| Marketing P/N | Rated power | Works on W520 | Full speed | Comment |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| 0A36227 | 170W | yes | yes | Official AC adapter for W520 |
| 41R4421 | 170W | no | no | Official AC adapter for W700, different plug diameter |
| 55Y9317 | 135W | unknown | unknown | Official AC adapter for W510, should work |
| Various | 90W | unknown | unknown | Should work with reduced performance |
| Various | 65W | no | no | Does not work |
Help needed
Please add any AC adapter compatibility information that you can personally confirm.
