What it is and who it is for

This 10 ft computer power cord carries a NEMA 5-15P plug on one end and an IEC-320-C13 connector on the other. The 18AWG three-conductor cable is rated for 10 A and suits desktop PCs, monitors or peripherals that need a standard mains lead. Builders replacing a short factory cable or routing power behind a desk will find the length convenient. It is not for devices that require a higher current rating or a different connector type.

Thermals noise and power draw

The cord is a passive conductor so it generates no audible noise and adds no measurable heat to the system. Its 18AWG conductors handle the rated 10 A load without voltage drop that would affect attached equipment. Power draw is determined entirely by the connected device, not by the cable itself. No active cooling or fan control is involved.

Bundled accessories and software

No software, adapters or extra cables are included in the package. The lifetime warranty from Monoprice covers the cord itself, giving a direct replacement path if a manufacturing fault appears. There are no driver downloads, configuration utilities or licensing steps required. The product ships as a single ready-to-use cable.

Questions about this item

How do I connect the NEMA 5-15P to IEC-320-C13 cord and what step is often missed?

Plug the NEMA 5-15P end into a wall outlet and the IEC-320-C13 end into the device power inlet, ensuring both connectors are fully seated; the step often missed is pushing the C13 connector until it clicks securely.

What maintenance or replacement will the 18AWG 10ft cord need over time?

Inspect the cable jacket and connectors periodically for cracks, fraying, or bent pins; replace the cord if the insulation is damaged or the connectors no longer grip firmly.

What limit appears first when the 10A rated cord runs under sustained load?

The 10 ampere rating is the primary limit; continuous draw near this level will cause the conductors to warm, so do not exceed the rated current.
