Hosa Technology PWC-140.5 6" IEC C13 to NEMA 5-15P Extension Cable
Connects C14-equipped gear to North American mains power using oxygen-free copper conductors in a low-profile black PVC jacket
- Lower resistance and better current flow with oxygen-free copper conductors
- Durable, flexible black PVC jacket stays low-profile on stage
- Connects C14 inlet devices to NEMA 5-15P line power
- Ideal for computer equipment and pro audio gear
- Designed for North America and NEMA-standard regions
Short IEC C13 Extension for Rack Gear
This six-inch cable links a C14 inlet on a computer or pro-audio device to a standard NEMA 5-15P wall outlet. Oxygen-free copper conductors reduce resistance and improve current delivery for sensitive equipment. The compact length keeps rack cabling tidy and avoids coiled slack behind cabinets. It is built for North American power systems and countries that follow the NEMA standard.
Plug-and-Play with No Drivers Required
Installation is a simple matter of seating the C13 connector into the device inlet and the NEMA plug into the receptacle. The short, stiff PVC jacket can resist sharp bends, so route it with a gentle curve rather than forcing a tight corner. The only common issue is attempting to use the cable outside NEMA regions where the wall socket differs. No software, adapters or configuration are needed.
Handles Typical Desktop and Audio Loads
The 14 AWG oxygen-free copper conductors comfortably supply standard desktop PCs, monitors and rackmount audio processors. It will not support high-draw appliances such as space heaters or large amplifiers that exceed the connector rating. The six-inch reach suits adjacent outlets in a power strip or PDU but cannot bridge wider gaps. For longer runs, a full-length cord is necessary.

Questions about this item
How can I confirm the PWC-140.5 cable is working correctly after connecting my gear?
Plug the NEMA 5-15P end into a live North American outlet and the IEC C13 end into your device's C14 inlet; the equipment should power on immediately, showing the oxygen-free copper conductors are passing current properly.
What comes with the Hosa PWC-140.5 and what must I source separately?
The box contains only the 6-inch black PVC-jacketed extension cable with IEC C13 and NEMA 5-15P ends; you must provide the wall outlet and the device with a C14 inlet yourself.
Which version of the PWC-140.5 should I choose for my setup?
Only the single 6-inch model 140.5 is offered, built with oxygen-free copper conductors for North American NEMA 5-15P power, so select it when you need a short IEC C13 extension.
