Single-Outlet to Dual-Outlet Power Splitter
The Cable Leader splitter cord converts one NEMA 5-15P low-profile angled plug into two 5-15R receptacles, letting a PC and monitor or two pieces of equipment share a single wall outlet. Rated at 13 A / 125 V with 16 AWG SJT-jacketed three-conductor copper, it is UL Listed and CSA certified (file E210037) and RoHS compliant. Not suitable for loads exceeding 13 A total or for 20 A circuits requiring 12 AWG cable.
Thermals Noise and Power Draw
Passive copper conductors and moulded strain-relief connectors produce no fan noise and add negligible heat during normal desktop or monitor loads up to 13 A. The 105 °C / 300 V SJT jacket remains flexible at typical indoor temperatures while safely carrying the rated current. No active cooling or power consumption is introduced by the cord itself.
16 AWG 13 Amp Rating Decides Suitability
The 16 AWG gauge and 13 A / 125 V rating are the single specification that determines whether this splitter matches the equipment. It supports computers and standard office peripherals but cannot serve servers, PDUs or heavy-duty gear that demand 14 AWG at 15 A or 12 AWG at 20 A. Buyers needing higher continuous current must select a thicker-gauge cord.

Questions about this item
How do I install the low-profile angled 5-15P plug into a wall outlet or PDU?
Insert the 5-15P fully until the molded body sits flush; the step people miss is checking that both 5-15R outputs stay within the 13A / 125V combined limit.
What maintenance or replacement will this 16 AWG SJT splitter cord need over time?
Inspect the molded connectors and strain relief periodically; replace the cord if the jacket shows cracks, the ground pin is loose, or the UL Listed E210037 certification label becomes illegible.
What limit appears first when running both 5-15R outputs continuously near capacity?
The 13A / 125V combined rating on the 16 AWG SJT cable is the first limit; total draw across the two receptacles must stay at or below 13 amps.
