Universal IEC power connection

The Cable Leader 3 ft NEMA 5-15P to C13 cord links a standard North American wall outlet, power strip or PDU to any device with an IEC 60320 C13 inlet such as PCs, monitors, servers or printers. The 16 AWG SJT-jacketed cable carries 13 A at 125 V using three grounded copper conductors. UL Listed and CSA certified (file E210037) with RoHS compliance.

Continuous-load reliability

The 16 AWG gauge is rated for sustained currents up to 13 A, making it suitable for typical desktop computers and monitors that draw steady power over long sessions. The SJT jacket withstands 105 °C and 300 V, while fully molded connectors and strain relief protect the grounded three-wire circuit from fatigue. Unlike lighter 18 AWG cords limited to 10 A, this gauge maintains safe temperatures under continuous desktop or server workloads.

Pre-purchase checklist

Verify that your equipment uses a C13 inlet and that the supply outlet is a NEMA 5-15R receptacle. Confirm the 3 ft length reaches between your outlet and device without tension. Ensure the 13 A rating meets or exceeds the nameplate draw of the connected hardware; higher-draw servers or PDUs may require 14 AWG (15 A) or 12 AWG (20 A) cords instead.

Questions about this item

How much heat does the 16 AWG SJT jacket handle when the cord runs at 13 A all day?

The SJT jacket is rated for 105 °C continuous operation, so it handles the heat from a full 13 A load without degrading.

What must I already own for this NEMA 5-15P to C13 cord to work?

A standard North American 5-15 wall outlet, power strip or PDU on one end and a device with an IEC 60320 C14 inlet on the other.

Will the 3 ft length reach equipment in an older rack that uses deeper PDUs?

At 3 ft the cord is short; measure the distance from your PDU to the C14 inlet before relying on it in a deep rack.
