An appliance includes a cabinet with a rear panel. The rear panel defines a recessed portion with an offset surface and an aperture defined on the offset surface. A power connector is disposed in the aperture. The power connector includes a cable engagement section configured to engage a power cable and a source engagement section opposing the cable engagement section. The source engagement section extends through the rear panel to engage a power receiver within the cabinet. A mounting flange is disposed between the cable engagement section and the source engagement section and operably couples to the offset surface. A cover is coupled to the rear panel over the recessed portion. The cover includes an outer rim and a body protruding outward from the outer rim. An opening is defined between a bottom section of the body and the rear panel through which the power cable is configured to extend.
