Space-Saving 12in Power Extension

This 12in power extension cord adds reach between a wall outlet or power strip and a device plug. It uses a NEMA 5-15P male plug and a NEMA 5-15R female receptacle rated for 15 amps. The 16 AWG SJT cable with PVC jacket suits typical desktop and peripheral power needs. The short length keeps cable clutter minimal while freeing blocked sockets.

Simple Plug-In Installation

Connect the male end to the outlet and the device plug into the female end; no tools or configuration are required. The compact 12in length reduces strain on the outlet but offers limited reach, so the device must sit close to the power source. The 16 AWG wire gauge is not intended for high-draw appliances such as heaters or large laser printers.

Ideal for Bulky Adapters on Crowded Strips

This cord suits users who need to fit oversized power bricks onto a busy power strip or wall outlet without losing adjacent sockets. It is not for buyers who need longer cable runs, higher amperage capacity, or outdoor-rated jacket material. Anyone requiring a grounded extension beyond 12 inches should consider a different length or wire gauge.
