Description

StarTech W31C-4100-POWER-CORD 1ft Heavy Duty Power Cord

Overview

The StarTech W31C-4100-POWER-CORD is a 1-foot (30cm) heavy-duty power cord designed to bridge the gap between a 15A, 125V locking outlet (NEMA L5-20P) and a standard 15A, 125V device inlet (NEMA 5-15). This cord is essential for powering equipment in environments where a standard outlet is not directly accessible from a locking-type power source, such as connecting a server or workstation to a PDU in a rack that uses L5-20R outlets. Its robust construction ensures reliable power delivery for demanding applications.

Compatibility

This power cord is compatible with any device requiring a NEMA 5-15 power input connector and any power source providing a NEMA L5-20P locking outlet. This includes many standard IT devices, surveillance equipment power supplies, and workstations that utilize the common 5-15 receptacle. The TAA compliance makes it suitable for government and federal agency procurements.

Installation Notes

The cable features a durable SJT jacket rated for -20 to 105°C (-4 to 221°F) operation, providing flexibility and resistance to abrasion. The 14 AWG wire gauge ensures it can safely handle up to 15A continuous current draw without overheating, supporting the full capacity of the NEMA 5-15 connector. The VW-1 fire rating offers an additional layer of safety. The cord's overall length is 12 inches (30.5 cm) with a cable diameter of 0.36 inches (9.3mm).
