EP DL-31 12/3 SJTW 3 ft Extension Cord
This EP DL-31 power extension cord measures three feet and uses 12-gauge SJTW cable rated for 15 amps at 125 volts. It carries a UL listing and a three-prong grounded plug for safe connection. The heavy-duty vinyl jacket stays flexible from minus 40 to 140 degrees Fahrenheit. Pure copper conductors deliver 1875 watts to attached equipment.
Suits outdoor tools and generators.
Builders running lawn mowers, pressure washers or holiday light systems will appreciate the abrasion-resistant jacket and reinforced blades that resist bending. The cord remains pliable in cold weather and resists moisture and direct sunlight. It is not intended as a substitute for fixed building wiring or for loads exceeding 15 amps. Users needing longer reach should select a different length.
12-gauge 15 A rating decides fit
The single specification that determines compatibility is the 12-gauge construction rated for 15 amps and 1875 watts at 125 volts. Match this rating to the nameplate draw of the appliance or tool you plan to power. Exceeding the rated current creates a fire hazard and voids the safety certification. Always verify the device amperage before connecting.

Questions about this item
Does the 12/3 SJTW cord need a 5-15R outlet and a 5-15P plug on the device I want to power?
Yes, the cord terminates in a 5-15P plug and a 5-15R receptacle, so both the wall outlet and the appliance must use that standard 15 A 125 V grounded configuration.
Can I keep using my older 14 or 16 gauge cords on the same circuit with this 12 gauge cord?
Yes, you can mix gauges on the same circuit, but the 12 gauge cord handles up to 15 A and 1875 W, while 14 and 16 gauge cords are rated for less current, so do not exceed their individual limits.
How can I confirm the cord is working correctly after I plug it in?
The UL listing and grounded 3-prong design mean the cord is energised when the plug seats fully; verify by powering a known-good appliance and checking that it runs without the cord or connectors becoming warm.
