Power extension for desktop and monitor setups

This six-foot cord adds reach between a wall outlet or power strip and a computer, monitor or peripheral. The 16 AWG conductors are rated for 13 amps at 125 volts, matching standard North American household circuits. Both ends use NEMA 5-15 connectors so no adapter is required. The black SJT jacket resists everyday office wear.

Suits users who need a short.

Builders looking for a longer run, heavier gauge wire or multiple outlets should look elsewhere. The cord is not rated for outdoor use or for loads above 13 amps. It also lacks an integrated switch, surge protection or right-angle plugs.

The 13-amp rating decides if the cord matches your

Check the nameplate on the equipment you plan to power; if it draws more than 13 amps at 125 volts this extension is not adequate. For lower-draw gear such as typical desktop PSUs and monitors the cord provides a safe, code-compliant link.

Questions about this item

Does the 16 AWG SJT cord run warm when powering a 13 A load for a full day?

The cable is rated for 13 A at 125 V, so it will carry a continuous 13 A load within spec.

What outlet and device plugs must I already have for this NEMA 5-15P to 5-15R cord to work?

You need a standard US three-prong wall receptacle (NEMA 5-15R) and a device with a matching NEMA 5-15P plug.

Will this 6 ft extension work with an older monitor that draws near the 13 A limit?

Yes, the cord supports up to 13 A at 125 V, so any legacy monitor within that draw will operate normally.
