North America NEMA 5-15P to IEC 60320 C15 cord
This eight-foot power extension cord carries a NEMA 5-15P plug on one end and an IEC 60320 C15 connector on the other. It connects devices with a male C16 inlet to a standard North American wall outlet, UPS, or power strip. The cable uses 14 AWG conductors and is rated for 15 A at 125 V. It suits PCs, monitors, scanners, printers and high-temperature appliances such as electric kettles.
Suits C16-equipped devices needing a C15 link
Builders whose hardware uses a C14 inlet instead of C16 cannot use this cord, because the C15 connector will not mate. Users outside North America needing a different regional plug should select a cable with the appropriate plug type. The cord is not intended for loads above its 15 A, 1875 W rating.
14 AWG, 15 A, 125 V rating decides fit
The 14 AWG wire gauge and 15 A, 125 V rating set the maximum safe load at 1875 W. Equipment drawing more current requires a heavier-gauge cord with a higher ampere rating. Check the device nameplate before connecting to ensure the draw stays within this limit.

Questions about this item
My device has a C16 inlet — will the C15 connector on this cord fit it?
Yes, the IEC 60320 C15 female connector mates directly with a male C16 panel inlet on PCs, monitors, printers or compatible appliances.
I plan to plug this into an older US wall outlet — does the NEMA 5-15P plug require a grounded receptacle?
The cord uses a standard grounded NEMA 5-15P plug, so it needs a three-prong 125 V outlet; a two-prong ungrounded socket will not accept it.
After connecting the C15 to my equipment and the 5-15P to the wall, how can I confirm the cord is delivering power correctly?
Verify the device powers on normally; the cord is rated for 15 A and 1875 W at 125 V, matching typical PC and monitor loads.
