Purpose and design

This Monoprice power extension cord adds 3.00 ft of reach between a wall outlet and an AC powered device. It uses a grounded NEMA 5-15P plug on one end and a matching NEMA 5-15R receptacle on the other. The cable is built with 16AWG conductors and rated for 13A. A lifetime warranty covers the cord.

Who should buy and who should not

Home and office users who need a short, grounded extension for lamps, chargers or small appliances will find this cord suitable. Builders who need a longer run, a heavier gauge for high-draw equipment or a different connector type should look at other options. The 3.00 ft length limits placement flexibility in larger rooms.

Check before ordering

Confirm that your device uses a standard NEMA 5-15P plug and that the outlet is a NEMA 5-15R receptacle. Verify that the equipment draw does not exceed the 13A rating of this 16AWG cord. Ensure the 3.00 ft length is sufficient for the intended routing without tension.

Questions about this item

What outlet and device plug types does the 5298 cord connect?

The cord has a NEMA 5-15P plug for a standard wall outlet and a NEMA 5-15R receptacle that accepts a standard three-prong device plug.

Can I run a 13 A load through this 16 AWG extension alongside older power strips?

Yes, the 16 AWG conductors are rated for 13 A, so the cord will carry the same current as the strips without creating a bottleneck.

How do I confirm the 3.00 ft extension is delivering power correctly after plugging it in?

Connect your device; if it powers on and runs normally, the cord is conducting the full 13 A rating as intended.
