Product Purpose

The Tripp Lite P004-18N-2C13 is an 18 in power splitter cord with a C14 male plug and two C13 female connectors. It lets two devices with C14 inlets draw power from a single C13 outlet on a PDU or UPS. The cord is rated for 10 A at 100–250 VAC and uses 18 AWG conductors. It suits server racks or workstations where outlet space is limited.

Splitter Function

The Y-cable replaces two separate cords, reducing clutter and saving one outlet on the power strip. Each C13 branch feeds a device such as a server, monitor or network switch that has a C14 inlet. The combined load must stay within the 10 A maximum. The short 1.5 ft length keeps the wiring tidy inside a cabinet.

Setup Checklist

Verify that your PDU or UPS provides a C13 outlet and that each target device has a C14 inlet. Confirm the total current draw of both devices does not exceed 10 A. Ensure the 18 in reach is sufficient for your rack layout; longer runs need a different cable. The cord is for indoor use only.

Questions about this item

Will the 18 AWG cable or C13 connectors need periodic replacement?

The 18 AWG cord and moulded C13 connectors are rated for continuous 10 A service; no scheduled replacement is required unless physical damage or overheating is observed.

What is the first limit reached when both outlets draw maximum current continuously?

The splitter is rated for 10 A total input; exceeding 10 A combined load will trip the upstream PDU or UPS breaker first.

Does the cord generate noticeable heat or noise when powering two devices all day?

The passive 18 AWG cable produces no noise and only minimal warmth at or below its 10 A, 100–250 V rating.
