Compact 1 ft Laptop Power Cord

The Toptekits US 3 Prong AC Power Cord measures 1 ft or 30 cm and connects a standard NEMA 5-15P wall outlet to a laptop power supply that uses an IEC 60320 C5 inlet. It is built for users who want a short, tidy cable to replace a lost or damaged original cord on compatible notebooks. The 18 AWG conductors are rated for 10 A at 125 V and carry UL and CSA safety certifications.

Molded Connectors and Heavy-Duty Insulation

The fully molded male and female ends eliminate exposed wiring and resist strain from repeated plugging and unplugging. Heavy-duty insulation protects the 0.824 mm² conductors inside, while the polarized C5 socket — often called the Mickey Mouse connector — ensures correct orientation every time. No additional software, adapters or drivers are required; the cord works immediately with any matching laptop power brick.

Limited to 125 V 10 A North American Outlets

The NEMA 5-15P plug is designed for 125 V AC circuits common in the United States and Canada, so the cord cannot be used directly on 250 V mains without a suitable transformer or adapter. Its fixed 1 ft length restricts placement to situations where the power supply sits very close to the wall socket. Buyers who need a longer reach or international plug types will need a different cable.

Questions about this item

Will the 18 AWG wire gauge or the moulded NEMA 5-15P to C5 connectors need replacement after extended use?

The heavy-duty 18 AWG construction with fully moulded connectors is built for long life; no user-serviceable parts are inside, so the cord itself is the only item that would ever need replacing if damaged.

What is the maximum continuous current the cord can carry before the 10 A rating becomes the limiting factor?

The UL-listed and CSA-approved cable is rated for 125 V at 10 A, so sustained loads above 10 amps would exceed its certified capacity.

Does the 1 ft length or 18 AWG gauge cause noticeable heat or voltage drop when the laptop charger runs all day?

At 18 AWG and only 30 cm long, resistance is minimal, so heat rise and voltage drop remain negligible even during continuous operation at the rated 10 A load.
