TeKit US NEMA 5-15P to IEC320 C5 Power Cord 1 ft

This TeKit power cord connects a standard US wall outlet to a laptop power supply using a three-slot C5 connector. The male NEMA 5-15P plug fits North American receptacles while the female IEC 60320 C5 end mates with the cloverleaf inlet found on many notebook adapters. The cable measures 1 ft and uses 18 AWG oxygen-free copper conductors. It is UL listed and CSA approved for 125 Volt and 10 Amp service.

Who this suits and who should look elsewhere

This cord suits owners of laptops or portable power bricks that accept a three-slot C5 inlet and need a short replacement lead for travel or desktop tidiness. The fully moulded, double-shielded construction resists wear from frequent packing. Buyers whose equipment uses a two-slot inlet or a larger three-slot inlet cannot use this cable. Anyone needing a longer reach between outlet and power supply should choose a different length.

The specification that decides fit

The decisive specification is the IEC 60320 C5 female connector, often called the Mickey Mouse ears plug. Only devices with an identical three-round-pin triangular inlet will accept this cord. Verify the inlet on your power supply before purchase; no other connector shape will work with this cable.

Questions about this item

What does the 18 AWG rating mean for everyday laptop charging?

The 18 AWG conductors carry up to 10 A at 125 V, which covers the vast majority of laptop power bricks without voltage drop over the short 1 ft run.

How does the NEMA 5-15P to IEC 60320 C5 connection limit what I can plug in?

The NEMA 5-15P male end fits any standard North American 125 V wall outlet, while the C5 female end only mates with the three-slot Mickey Mouse port on compatible laptop adapters.

What clearance do I need behind the laptop for this 1 ft cord to sit without strain?

At 30 cm end-to-end, the fully moulded connectors need only a few centimetres behind the device; the short length is intended for desktop use where the outlet is right next to the laptop.
