Two-Pack Replacement Power Cords

This two-pack supplies spare or replacement IEC C5 leads for laptop power bricks that use the three-slot cloverleaf connector. Each cord carries a NEMA 5-15P plug for standard 120 V AC outlets. The 3-foot length suits desk or travel use where the factory cable is lost or too short. Builders keeping a spare in a kit will appreciate the paired value.

16 AWG Current Capacity

The 16 AWG conductors are rated for 13 A at 120 V, providing more headroom than thinner 18 AWG alternatives. UL listing confirms the assembly meets recognised safety requirements for the stated voltage and current. The fully moulded strain-relief ends resist damage from repeated plugging and unplugging.

Handles Typical Laptop Loads

At the specified 7 A draw the cord runs well within its 13 A rating, so heat buildup stays low during normal charging cycles. The ribbon-style jacket remains flexible for routing behind furniture or inside a bag. It will not support devices that require a C13 or C7 inlet, nor loads exceeding the 13 A limit.
