8 ft NEMA 5-20P to C19 power cord

This 8 ft cord carries a NEMA 5-20P plug on one end and an IEC 60320 C19 connector on the other. It is built for computers, monitors, servers, printers and other equipment that use a C19 inlet and draw up to 20 A at 125 V. The heavy-duty 12 AWG SJT jacket is rated 105 °C and 300 V. It is UL Listed and CSA certified under file E210037 and RoHS compliant.

Installation and common issues

The moulded connectors push straight into the outlet and the device inlet; no tools are required. Ensure the 5-20P plug seats fully in a matching 20 A receptacle and the C19 body clicks into the equipment inlet. A loose fit on either end can cause intermittent power or overheating. Avoid sharp bends near the strain relief and do not run the cord under carpet or through doorways where it can be pinched.

What to verify before ordering

Confirm your wall outlet, power strip or PDU provides a NEMA 5-20R receptacle rated for 20 A at 125 V. Verify the equipment you are powering has an IEC 60320 C19 inlet and that its nameplate current does not exceed 20 A. Check that the 8 ft length reaches your routing path without tension. This cord is not suitable for devices with a C13 inlet or for circuits limited to 15 A.

Questions about this item

How can I verify the 12 AWG cord is delivering 20A / 125V to my server after plugging it in?

The UL Listed and CSA certified (file E210037) markings on the molded connectors confirm the 12 AWG, 20A / 125V rating; a secure C19 fit and powered equipment indicate proper operation.

What comes with the 8 ft NEMA 5-20P to C19 cord and what must I source separately?

The package contains the 8 ft black SJT-jacketed cord with molded 5-20P plug and C19 connector; you must provide the 5-20R outlet or PDU and the IEC 60320 C20 inlet on your equipment.

When should I choose this 12 AWG version instead of a thinner gauge?

Select the 12 AWG, 20A cord for heavy-duty equipment drawing up to 20A; 14 AWG suits 15A loads, 16 AWG suits 13A, and 18 AWG suits 10A devices.
