What this adapter does

This short cable converts a standard C13 power cord into a NEMA 5-15 extension. It has a male IEC 60320 C14 plug on one end and a female NEMA 5-15 receptacle on the other. The cord is 0.3048 metres long and built with 18AWG wire rated for 10A. It is intended for indoor use with compatible equipment.

Voltage and current limits

The adapter does not change voltage levels between the C14 inlet and the 5-15 outlet. It simply passes the supply voltage through, so the connected device must accept the local mains voltage. The 18AWG conductors and connectors are rated for a maximum of 10A continuous current. Exceeding this rating can cause overheating or damage to the cord.

Check your existing cord and outlet

Verify that your current power cable ends in a C13 connector that mates with the C14 plug on this adapter. Confirm the wall outlet or power strip provides a NEMA 5-15 socket matching the adapter's female end. Ensure the total load of attached devices stays within the 10A rating of the adapter cable.

Questions about this item

Which length should I pick for a short reach from a C13 outlet to a NEMA 5-15 plug?

The cord is .3048 m long, about one foot, giving a tight connection between a C14 inlet and a standard North American socket.

What does the 10 A rating mean when I plug a device into the NEMA 5-15 end?

The adapter passes up to 10 A at the voltage already present on the C14 side; it does not change voltage, so the connected device must match the supply.

How do the IEC 60320 C14 and NEMA 5-15 connectors work together on this cable?

The male C14 plugs into a C13 outlet on a PSU or PDU, while the female NEMA 5-15 accepts a standard 5-15P plug, turning the C13 feed into a familiar wall-style socket.
