Product Identity

The Black Box EPXR12 is a 10-foot power cord with a NEMA 5-15P plug and an IEC-60320-C13 connector. It supplies mains power to desktop computers, monitors and similar equipment in North American environments. The cord is supplied new in black.

Who This Suits

This cord suits users replacing a damaged lead or extending the reach between a wall outlet and a device fitted with a C13 inlet. Buyers whose equipment uses a different inlet type or who need a locking connector should look elsewhere.

Deciding Specification

The connector pairing of NEMA 5-15P to IEC-60320-C13 is the single detail that determines whether this cord fits the target hardware. Verify the inlet on the device before ordering.

Questions about this item

Will the IEC-60320-C13 connector on this cord need replacement after extended use?

The IEC-60320-C13 end is moulded to the cable and rated for the life of the cord; no user-serviceable parts are inside, so replacement is only needed if the jacket or pins show physical damage.

What is the first limit reached when this 10-foot cord runs at its 15-amp rating continuously?

At the full 15-amp NEMA 5-15P rating the 10-foot length reaches its voltage-drop and temperature limits before the connectors do, so sustained loads should stay below the cord's ampacity.

How warm does the NEMA 5-15P plug get when the cord powers a workstation all day?

Under normal office loads the plug runs only slightly above ambient; it becomes noticeably warm only when the attached equipment draws close to the 15-amp rating for long periods.
