12ft (3.7m) 18 AWG Outlet Saver Power Extension Cord (NEMA 5-15P to NEMA 5-15R)
12ft power extension cord for preventing bulky transformers from blocking surge strips, 18 AWG, 10 Amp
The C2G CG53408 is a 12 ft (3.7 m) 18 AWG Outlet Saver Power Extension Cord designed to prevent bulky AC transformers from blocking adjacent outlets on surge strips or UPS units. By utilizing a NEMA 5-15P male connector and a NEMA 5-15R female connector, this cord allows you to extend powered devices away from the wall or directly from a power strip. This is particularly useful for computers, monitors, scanners, and printers that utilize a 3-pin male-to-female shroud power connector. This heavy-duty power cable features a fully molded design for enhanced durability and a long service life. It is rated for 10 Amp and 125 V. The cord uses an SVT rated jacket with an outer diameter of 6.3mm. For installations requiring longer reaches, this series is also available in lengths up to 25ft, such as the CG53410 model. This product is TAA compliant and carries a lifetime warranty.
