Bumped cable enough to power off switch

I have a switch (Catalyst 3650) with redundant power supplies, but I have discovered that the power cables are VERY sensitive to being handled. Just a slight bump took both of them down, despite being fully seated. They do not appear to be the cables that came with the switch originally... Is this something that can be fixed by replacing the cables? Is there a certain spec for power cables to networking equipment that I should look into?

I need to do some cable management but now I'm not touching anything until a maintenance window.
