This NEMA 5-15P to IEC 320 C13 US Standard Power Extension Cord is a professional power extension solution specifically designed for the United States and systems compatible with 120V/60Hz power supply. Its core parameters are precisely matched to the needs of home, office, and small server room scenarios: it adopts a standard NEMA 5-15P US three-pin plug, which perfectly fits common wall mains sockets in the United States. The plug is equipped with a grounding terminal that can conduct the leakage current of the device to the ground, greatly reducing the risk of electric shock; paired with an IEC 320 C13 female connector, it is compatible with mainstream IT and office equipment such as desktop computer hosts, monitors, laser printers, small PDUs, and projectors, solving the power supply problem caused by incompatible interfaces of traditional cables.
The product uses a 16AWG (wire diameter 1.31mm²) high-purity oxygen-free copper conductor. Compared with conventional 18AWG cables, it has better electrical conductivity with a low resistance of 0.013Ω/m, and can stably carry 10A current and 125V voltage, with a maximum power bearing capacity of 1250W. Even when supplying power to high-load equipment (such as a combination of a high-performance desktop computer and a monitor), it can reduce heat loss during current transmission and avoid cable aging or equipment failure caused by overheating. The fixed 10ft (approximately 3 meters) length design balances long-distance power supply needs and storage convenience—it can meet scenarios where the device is far from the wall socket (such as connecting a living room projector to a corner socket, or an office printer far from the power interface) without causing tangles and accumulation due to overly long cables, adapting to various spatial layouts such as homes, offices, and small data centers.
In terms of quality and safety, the outer layer of the cable is covered with flame-retardant PVC insulation material, complying with the UL94 V-0 flame-retardant standard, which can self-extinguish within 10 seconds when exposed to open flames. It also has good wear-resistant and anti-aging properties, and can work normally in a temperature range of -20℃ to 70℃, adapting to temperature and humidity changes in different regions of the United States. The NEMA 5-15P plug is made through an integrated injection molding process, with nickel-plated brass pins that have strong oxidation resistance and uniform plugging force (4-25N), maintaining stable contact after 10,000 plugging tests; the C13 female connector is equipped with a reinforced buckle inside, which is not easy to loosen after being inserted into the device interface, eliminating power interruptions caused by poor contact. In addition, the cable surface is printed with clear specification marks (NEMA 5-15P, 16AWG, 10ft) for easy later identification and maintenance. At the same time, it has good flexibility with a minimum bending radius of only 8mm, which can easily pass through furniture gaps, behind equipment, or under desks, making installation and storage convenient.
Whether used in a home study to connect a desktop computer to a distant socket, in an office to deploy power supply for multiple office devices, or in a small server room to extend the power supply distance for edge computing equipment, this NEMA 5-15P to IEC C13 Power Extension Cord can become an ideal power extension choice for home and commercial scenarios in the U.S. market with its strong adaptability, stable performance, and safety reliability, providing continuous and stable power support for various low-to-medium power devices
