14 AWG Heavy Duty Universal Power Cords FAQ
Is a 14-gauge extension cord heavy duty?
A 14-gauge extension cord is considered medium-duty. It can handle up to 15 amps of current and is suitable for cords up to 100 feet in length, making it ideal for powering power tools and small appliances. For heavy-duty applications like large power tools and appliances, a 12-gauge or lower gauge cord is recommended.
What is a universal power cord?
A universal power cord is a versatile cord used to transfer power between different devices. It serves as a cost-effective replacement for lost or damaged power cords from device manufacturers. Universal power cords come in various connector types, such as NEMA 5-15P to IEC-60320-C13, to ensure compatibility with a wide range of devices.
Are power cords for PCs universal?
While most computer power cords share similar connectors and standards, they are not entirely universal. The two main types are C13/C14 and C19/C20. It's crucial to use the correct cord specified for your device to ensure proper power delivery and compatibility.
What is the difference between C13 and C14 power cords?
The C13 connector is rated for up to 10 amps at 250 volts and is designed for 120V or 240V appliances. The C14 connector is intended for 230V devices and is rated for up to 15 amps at 250 volts. While C13 cords can fit C14 inlets, the reverse is not possible due to the different connector designs.
What does 14 AWG mean for a power cord?
AWG stands for American Wire Gauge, a standardized system for measuring wire diameter. A lower AWG number indicates a thicker wire with a higher current capacity. 14 AWG cords have a conductor diameter of 1.63mm and are suitable for up to 20A loads, making them ideal for heavy-duty applications like powering servers, computers, and other high-demand devices.
