Rack-Secure Power Cord for 30A Equipment

This three-foot locking cord connects servers and PDUs to a NEMA L5-30R outlet in data centers and server rooms. The twist-lock plug prevents accidental disconnection under vibration or cable movement. A 10 AWG SJTW jacket rated to 105C and 300V carries 30A at 125V on three grounded copper conductors. UL Listed and CSA certified (file E210037), RoHS compliant.

Replaces Standard Cords That Can Dislodge

The twist-lock mechanism replaces straight-blade cords that can be pulled loose in dense racks or during maintenance. The step up from 12 AWG rated to 20A is justified when equipment draws up to 30A or when a locking receptacle is already installed. Lighter gauges such as 14 AWG (15A), 16 AWG (13A) or 18 AWG (10A) cannot support this load safely.

Fits Locking Rack Outlets and Frees Cable Slack

Male L5-30P to female L5-30R termination plugs directly into locking PDUs or wall outlets without adapters. The short three-foot length reduces excess cable in tight rack spaces while the black jacket aids circuit identification. No additional hardware is required beyond a compatible L5-30R source and equipment with an L5-30P inlet.

Questions about this item

What outlet and inlet does the L5-30P to L5-30R cord connect?

The male L5-30P plug locks into a matching 30A 125V twist-lock receptacle, while the female L5-30R end accepts a matching L5-30P plug on the equipment side

How do you secure the twist-lock connection so it will not pull loose?

Insert the L5-30P plug fully, then rotate it clockwise until the locking tabs engage; the twist-lock mechanism prevents accidental disconnection in racks or under vibration

When should the 10 AWG SJTW cable be inspected or replaced?

Check the jacket for cuts, abrasion or heat damage at each rack move; replace the cord if the insulation is cracked, conductors are exposed, or the twist-lock blades show pitting or deformation
