Three-foot NEMA 5-15 extension

This three-foot cord adds reach between a wall outlet or power strip and any device that uses a standard North American NEMA 5-15 plug. The black SJT jacket contains three 16 AWG conductors rated for 125 V AC at 13 A. It is built for indoor use with computers, monitors, printers, scanners and power strips.

16 AWG 13-amp rating

The 16 AWG wire gauge and 13-amp current rating are the figures that decide whether this cord can handle your load. At 125 volts the cord supports common office and home electronics, but it is not suited for appliances that draw more than 13 amps.

Desktop and office setups needing extra length

Buyers who need to bridge a short gap behind a desk or free a blocked outlet on a surge strip will find the three-foot length convenient. Installations that require a heavier gauge for higher current, a longer run, or an outdoor-rated jacket should look at a different cord.

Questions about this item

What does the 13 A rating mean when the cord is plugged into a power strip?

It means the cord can safely carry up to 13 amps of continuous current at 125 V, so the total draw of everything plugged into the receptacle end must stay at or below that limit.

How does the NEMA 5-15R to 5-15P interface affect what I can connect?

The 5-15P plug fits any standard North American 125 V wall outlet or strip, and the 5-15R receptacle accepts any standard 5-15P device plug — computers, monitors, printers or another strip.

Will the 3 ft length and SJT jacket let me route this behind a desk without kinking?

The 3 ft SJT cable is flexible enough for tight desk runs, and the PVC jacket resists abrasion while the 16 AWG conductors handle the rated 13 A load.
