Official Raspberry Pi 4B power supply
This official 15.3 W USB-C adapter delivers a regulated 5.1 V at 3.0 A, matching the Raspberry Pi 4 Model B specification released in June 2019. The captive 1.5 m 18 AWG cable terminates in a USB-C connector and includes short-circuit, over-current and over-temperature protection. It is intended for builders who need guaranteed stability when the board drives multiple USB peripherals or HATs at full load.
Input range and cable constraints
The unit accepts 96-264 V AC at 50/60 Hz, making it suitable for worldwide travel when paired with the appropriate plug adapter for the Canada/US pins supplied. The fixed 1.5 m cable length cannot be extended without adding resistance that may drop voltage below the 5.1 V target under 3 A load. Builds that require a longer reach or a detachable cable will need a different solution.
Upgrade from generic 5 V 3 A adapters
Generic 5 V 3 A chargers often sag under heavy Pi 4B loads, causing throttling or instability; the 5.1 V output here provides headroom for the board's on-board regulator and connected devices. The jump is worth it when the Pi 4B runs storage, networking or multiple HATs continuously. It does not address builds that need Power Delivery negotiation, higher voltages or a detachable cable for cable-management flexibility.

Questions about this item
Should I pick the 5.1V 3A version or a standard 5V 3A adapter for my Raspberry Pi 4B?
Choose the 5.1V 3A model; the slightly higher voltage compensates for cable drop so the board receives a stable 5V even under full load.
What does the 15.3W rating mean when the supply is running a Pi 4B with several peripherals?
It delivers up to 3A continuously at 5.1V, giving enough headroom for the board plus attached USB devices without voltage sag.
The captive cable is 1.5m 18AWG with a USB-C plug — does that limit the current I can draw?
The 18AWG cable is rated for the full 3A output, so the 1.5m length will not restrict the 5.1V 3A supply to the board.
