NEMA 5-20 Extension Cord 25FT
This NEMA 5-20 extension cord connects a 5-20P male plug to a 5-20R female receptacle that also accepts 5-15 plugs. It is built for users who need to extend a 20‑amp, 125‑volt power connection by 25 feet. The cord uses 12 AWG copper conductors rated for 20 amps and 2500 watts.
12 AWG STW Cable with UL Approval
The cable is constructed with STW 12AWG wire that carries UL approval for maximum 20‑amp loading. One hundred percent copper conductors inside a heavy‑duty jacket deliver reliable current capacity over the full length. This build supports continuous high‑draw equipment without voltage drop concerns.
20 Amp 125 Volt 2500 Watt Rating
The single specification that decides fit is the 20‑amp, 125‑volt, 2500‑watt rating on a 25‑foot 12 AWG cord. Buyers who need a longer run at the same ampacity or a lower‑gauge wire for lighter loads should look elsewhere.

Questions about this item
Will the 12 AWG copper conductors or the NEMA 5-20 plug and receptacle need periodic replacement under normal use?
The cord uses 12 AWG 100% copper wire with STW jacket and UL approval; no maintenance schedule is required, but inspect the plug blades and receptacle contacts for wear or discoloration after heavy use.
What is the first limit reached when the cord runs continuously at its 20 A, 2500 W rating?
The 20 A / 2500 W rating is the design ceiling; sustained loading at that level makes conductor temperature the limiting factor, so the STW 12 AWG insulation and UL rating define the safe continuous boundary.
How much heat does the 25 ft length produce when carrying 20 A all day, and does the STW jacket stay flexible?
At 20 A the 12 AWG copper produces measurable warmth along the 25 ft run; the STW jacket is rated for the temperature rise and remains flexible in typical indoor conditions.
