Power cord for laptop power supplies

This AC power cord connects a laptop power supply to a standard US wall outlet. It carries a NEMA 5-15P plug on one end and an IEC 60320 C5 cloverleaf connector on the other. The cord is rated for 10 amps at 1250 watts using 18AWG conductors. It suits replacement or spare-cable needs for compatible laptop bricks.

Fits tight spaces with right-angle C5

The C5 connector is moulded at a 90-degree angle so the cable runs parallel to the device instead of projecting outward. This helps when the power inlet sits close to a desk edge, wall or adjacent port. The 1.8288-metre length reaches most outlets without excess slack. No adapter or special socket is required beyond a standard NEMA 5-15 receptacle.

Handles continuous laptop charging load

The 18AWG copper conductors and 10-amp rating support sustained current draw from typical laptop power supplies during long work sessions. Grounded three-conductor construction maintains safe operation under continuous load. The cord is built to the same specifications as standard PC power cables for reliable everyday use.

Questions about this item

Will the 18 AWG conductors and 10 A rating handle continuous laptop charging without overheating?

The cord uses 18 AWG wire rated for 10 A and 1250 W, which matches typical laptop power supply draws well within its continuous capacity.

Does the cable become warm or emit noise when left plugged in all day?

A passive power cord has no moving parts or electronics, so it runs silently and only feels slightly warm at maximum rated load.

My laptop charger uses a C5 cloverleaf inlet — will this NEMA 5-15P to IEC 60320 C5 cord fit it directly?

Yes, the IEC 60320 C5 connector on this cord mates with the standard cloverleaf inlet found on most laptop power bricks.
