Secure Rack Power Cord

The Cable Leader 12 ft NEMA L5-20P to C13 locking power cord connects servers, PDUs and other equipment to a locking outlet in data centers and server rooms. A twist-lock plug secures the connection so it cannot be pulled loose under vibration or during rack maintenance. The black SJT jacket helps organize circuits by colour.

Data-Center Installers and Rack Builders

Installers who need a cable that stays seated in a NEMA L5-20R receptacle will benefit from the locking design. The 14 AWG conductors are rated for 15 A at 125 V, matching typical PDU branch circuits. Builders who require a non-locking IEC cord or a different plug type should select another cable.

Sustained Load Performance

The 14 AWG three-conductor copper cable carries 15 A continuously within its 105 °C / 300 V SJT rating. UL Listing and CSA certification (file E210037) confirm the construction meets safety standards for continuous operation. The locking mechanism maintains contact integrity so resistance does not increase over time.

Questions about this item

What type of power source must I already have for the NEMA L5-20P plug to connect?

You need a NEMA L5-20R locking receptacle rated for 125V that can supply up to 15A.

Will the C13 end still fit the power supplies on my older servers that use standard IEC inlets?

Yes, the C13 connector mates with any standard C14 inlet found on legacy servers and PDUs.

How can I verify the cord is carrying load safely after I install it in the rack?

Check that the twist-lock plug is fully rotated into the outlet and confirm the equipment powers on without the cord feeling warm.
