15A 125V NEMA adapter
This ORVIX power adapter converts a standard 15-amp household plug into a NEMA 5-20R receptacle using 18AWG conductors rated at 15A and 125V. The moulded construction carries UL/ETL certification for safe indoor use. It bridges the connection between common wall outlets and equipment requiring a 20-amp style inlet.
Fits between outlet and device
The adapter inserts directly between a NEMA 5-15P wall socket and a device cord ending in a 5-20P or 5-15P plug, requiring no tools or rewiring. Its short length keeps cable clutter low while freeing the user from hunting for a dedicated 20-amp circuit. The 18AWG wire gauge supports the full 15-amp rating without voltage drop over the short run.
Suits server and appliance installs
Builders connecting servers, PDUs, laser printers or large monitors to ordinary 15-amp branches will find the correct receptacle match here. Buyers who need a longer cord, a higher ampacity than 15A, or a different NEMA configuration should look at other adapter models.

Does the moulded body stay cool when the adapter runs at 15 A all day?
UL/ETL certification confirms the materials and construction meet temperature-rise limits for 15 A continuous operation.
What wall outlet and device plug types are needed to use this 5-15P to 5-20R adapter?
You need a standard NEMA 5-15R household receptacle and a device fitted with a NEMA 5-20P plug.
