Monoprice 10ft 16AWG Power Cord
This Monoprice 105286 power cord connects devices with an IEC-320-C13 inlet to a standard NEMA 5-15P wall outlet. The black cable measures 10.00 ft and uses 16AWG conductors rated for 13A. It replaces or upgrades the factory lead on computers, large servers and laser printers.
Suits equipment needing a longer reach to the mains
The 10 ft length gives extra routing flexibility for rack gear or workstations placed away from the socket. Builds that require a different plug standard, a higher current rating or a shorter cable to reduce clutter should select an alternative cord.
NEMA 5-15P to IEC-60320-C13 connectors
The two-connector assembly mates a 15A North American plug with a C13 appliance coupler. This single interface match decides whether the cord fits the target hardware and the available outlet.

Questions about this item
Will the 16 AWG conductors need replacement after years of 13 A service?
The 16 AWG cable is rated for 13 A continuous load; no scheduled replacement is required unless the jacket or connectors show physical damage.
What thermal limit appears first when the cord carries 13 A for hours?
At 13 A the 16 AWG conductors reach their NEC ampacity ceiling, so conductor temperature is the limiting factor before the NEMA 5-15P or IEC 60320 C13 connectors.
Does the 10 ft 16 AWG cord run warm or draw extra power when a server runs all day?
At full 13 A load the cord dissipates roughly 2–3 watts per foot, so it becomes slightly warm but adds negligible heat to the room and no audible noise.
