IEC C20 to C19 power extension

This six-foot cord extends a C20/C19 connection between a rack PDU, UPS or server and your existing power cord. The male C20 plug connects to the power source while the female C19 socket accepts your equipment cable. It is built for data-centre and server-room installations that need extra reach without an adapter. The black SJT jacket helps identify circuits at a glance.

Practical limits of 12 AWG 20A rating

The 12 AWG three-conductor copper cable is rated for 20 amps at 250 volts with a 105C temperature rating and 300V insulation. UL and CSA certification (file E210037) plus RoHS compliance confirm it meets safety standards for continuous heavy-duty loads. Lighter-gauge cords such as 18 AWG (10A), 16 AWG (13A) or 14 AWG (15A) cannot support the same current. Equipment drawing more than 20A requires a higher-rated cable.

Male C20 to female C19 connector match

The cord only works when both ends of your existing link use IEC 60320 C20 on the source side and C19 on the equipment side. If your PDU or UPS provides a different outlet, or your device uses a C13, C15 or other inlet, this extension will not connect. Buyers who need to bridge mismatched IEC connectors or convert to a different plug type must choose a different cable.

Questions about this item

How do I know if the 12 AWG, 20A version is the right gauge for my rack equipment?

The 12 AWG cord is rated for 20A at 250V, making it suitable for heavy-duty 20A servers, PDUs and high-draw gear, whereas 14 AWG tops out at 15A and 16 AWG at 13A.

What does the 20A / 250V rating actually deliver when the cord is plugged into a live PDU?

It supports a continuous 20A load at up to 250V through 3-conductor grounded copper with a 105C SJT jacket, so the cord itself will not be the bottleneck for any 20A rack device.

The cord uses IEC 60320 C20 to C19 — what does that standard cap in practice?

IEC 60320 C20/C19 connectors are the standard rack and PDU interface for servers, switches and AV gear, limiting the connection to the 20A / 250V rating of this 12 AWG cable.
