Power cord for desktop PCs and monitors

This 12 ft black cable connects equipment with an IEC-60320 C13 inlet to a standard NEMA 5-15P wall outlet. The 18 AWG conductors are rated for 10 A, making it suitable for typical desktop computers, displays and peripherals. Model 124195 carries Monoprice lifetime warranty coverage.

Suitable for replacing a short or damaged mains lead

It suits builders who need extra reach between a power strip and a tower or monitor. Buyers who require a higher amperage rating or a different connector type such as C19 or C5 should look at other cables. The fixed 12 ft length may be excessive for compact desk setups.

Critical spec is the 10 A 18 AWG rating

This single figure determines whether the cord can safely power your device. Check the equipment label; if it draws more than 10 A you must select a heavier gauge cable. The NEMA 5-15P to IEC-60320 C13 ends are fixed and cannot be changed.

Questions about this item

How do I install the 12 ft 18AWG cord and what is the common mistake?

Plug the NEMA 5-15P end into a wall outlet and the IEC 60320 C13 end into the device inlet; the mistake is inserting the C13 connector upside down because its keying allows only one orientation.

What maintenance or replacement will this 10 A power cord need later?

Inspect the black jacket and both connectors periodically; replace the cord if the 18 AWG conductors show fraying, the NEMA 5-15P blades bend, or the C13 socket grips loosen.

What limit appears first on this 124195 cord during sustained use?

The 10 A rating is the limiting factor; continuous loads above 10 amperes will overheat the 18 AWG conductors before any other constraint is reached.
