What you need is a transformer brick that will translate AC power into DC 
voltage.  The Apple II C Tech. Ref. lists the input voltages of the II C can 
range between 9 and 20 VDC.  The maximum power consumption of the II C is 25W.  
So the power supply you buy better be this rating or higher.  The layout of the
power connector is as follows from the perspective of looking into the computer.

   7   1
 6       2
  5     3
     4  

1,7 Not Connected
2,3 Eletrical Ground
4   Chassis Ground
5,6 +15VDC

The power supply I have connected to my II C is an Acer power supply brick 
model number 1100xl that can do 120 and 220 VAC to 18VDC 3.1Amps.  It costed 
less than $20 for the new supply and adapter connector from my local 
electronics store.  The whole power supply works like a charm.
