Extension Cord 12 AWG 100 ft

This 100-foot extension cord uses 12 AWG conductors rated for 15 amps and 1,875 watts at 125 volts. It is built for outdoor use with a yellow PVC jacket marked with a black stripe. The cord carries a SJTW designation and operates from -40 to 167 degrees Fahrenheit.

Thermals and Power Draw

The cord handles up to 15 amps continuous load without exceeding its temperature rating of 167 degrees Fahrenheit. A lighted power indicator on the receptacle shows when voltage is present. The round jacket measures 0.42 inches in nominal outside diameter for durability.

Lighted Indicator and Single Outlet

The built-in power indicator lets users confirm the circuit is live at a glance. Only one NEMA 5-15R outlet is provided, so the cord suits a single tool or appliance rather than a power strip. California Proposition 65 warnings apply to chemicals in the jacket material.

Questions about this item

How do I connect the 12 AWG cord to a 125V AC outlet without damaging the NEMA 5-15P plug?

Align the straight blades of the NEMA 5-15P plug with the receptacle slots, push straight in until fully seated, and avoid angling the plug which can bend the blades or stress the 0.42 in. jacket.

When should I replace the yellow PVC jacket on this 100 ft SJTW cord?

Replace the cord if the yellow with black stripe jacket shows cuts, cracking from -40 to 167 degree F exposure, or if the lighted power indicator fails to illuminate when energized.

What load limit trips first on a 15 A, 1875 W continuous draw?

The 15 A rating limits sustained use; drawing 1875 W at 125V AC reaches the maximum ampacity of the 12/3 conductors and the NEMA 5-15R single outlet.
