50 ft Indoor Power Extension

This 50 ft extension cord adds reach between a wall outlet, power strip or surge protector and any standard 3-prong device cord. It uses a NEMA 5-15P male plug and a matching 5-15R female outlet. The cable is built with 16 AWG, 13A / 125V SJT-jacketed 3-conductor grounded copper. It is UL Listed and CSA certified for indoor use only.

Fits Standard 3-Prong Devices

The male end plugs into any standard 3-prong outlet, power strip or surge protector indoors. The female end accepts the existing power cord from a computer, monitor, appliance or shop equipment. A true 3-wire grounded design with molded plugs and strain relief frees you from the short reach of factory cords. The SJT jacket is rated for indoor environments such as offices, labs, workshops and homes.

13A Capacity for Computers

The 16 AWG conductors handle up to 13A at 125V, which suits typical desktop computers, monitors and office appliances. It does not support 15A or 20A server or PDU loads that require 14 AWG or 12 AWG cable. Builders needing higher amperage or outdoor-rated cable should select a different gauge or jacket type.

Questions about this item

What is the maximum continuous current the 16 AWG conductors can carry before they become the limiting factor?

The cord is rated for 13 A at 125 V, so sustained loads above 13 A will exceed the 16 AWG copper limit.

How warm does the SJT jacket get when the cord runs at its 13 A rating all day?

At the full 13 A rating the 16 AWG conductors and SJT jacket will warm noticeably but remain within UL-listed temperature limits for indoor use.

What type of outlet must already be present for the NEMA 5-15P plug to connect?

A standard NEMA 5-15R three-prong receptacle — wall outlet, power strip or surge protector — is required.
