Cable Leader 3ft NEMA 5-15P to C13 Power Cord 18 AWG 10A 125V White

Power connection for IEC C13 devices

This three-foot cord connects a standard NEMA 5-15P wall plug to an IEC 60320 C13 inlet found on most desktop PCs, monitors, printers and similar equipment. It supplies 125 V at up to 10 A using 18 AWG SJT copper conductors with a 300 V insulation rating. The white jacket and moulded strain relief suit office or rack environments where a short, tidy link is preferred.

Current and temperature limits of the 18 AWG SJT

The 18 AWG conductors are rated for a maximum of 10 amps at 125 volts and an operating temperature of 105 °C. Exceeding either limit can degrade the insulation or trip the circuit breaker, so the cord must not be used for higher-draw appliances such as space heaters or large laser printers. The UL and CSA certifications (file E210037) confirm compliance with North American safety standards for this ampacity class.

Three-foot length fixes the reach

At exactly three feet the cable only spans short distances between a wall outlet or PDU and the device inlet. Builds that route power behind rack rails, across wide desks or through cable-management channels will find the length insufficient and should select a longer cord instead.
