More About Universal AC Power Cords

CableLeader's AC power cords deliver safe, reliable power for computers, monitors, printers, and office equipment. Our most popular configuration is the 3-prong NEMA 5-15P to C13 power cord — the universal standard for desktop PCs, servers, and IEC C14 inlets. Choose the gauge that matches your load: 18 AWG SVT/SJT rated 10A/125V for everyday PCs and monitors, 16 AWG SJT rated 13A/125V for higher-draw desktops, or 14 AWG SJT heavy-duty rated 15A/125V for servers, PDUs, and long runs. Every AC power cable is UL and cUL Listed, with copper conductors and durable molded plugs, in lengths from 1ft to 50ft and colors including black, white, red, blue, and green for easy cable management. Whether you need a single replacement power cord or bulk quantities for a deployment, our AC power cords meet North American safety standards and ship fast from US stock.

How to Choose Your AC Power Cord

Use this quick guide to match the right AC power cord to your equipment:

  • Choose 18 AWG (SVT/SJT) for standard PCs, monitors, and printers — rated 10A/125V and the most common computer power cord.
  • Choose 16 AWG (SJT) for higher-draw desktops and peripherals — rated 13A/125V, a step up from standard 18 AWG.
  • Choose 14 AWG (SJT) Heavy-Duty for servers, PDUs, and high-draw equipment, or for longer runs where lower voltage drop matters — rated 15A/125V.
  • Choose Shielded if the cord runs near industrial motors, lighting ballasts, or other sources of electromagnetic interference.
  • Choose your length: short 1ft–3ft cords for rack and desktop routing, 6ft–10ft for reaching floor or wall outlets, up to 50ft for long runs.
  • Choose a color (black, white, red, blue, green) to color-code circuits and simplify cable management in racks and under desks.

Frequently Asked Questions about AC Power Cords

What is an AC power cord?

An AC power cord connects a device to a wall outlet to supply alternating current. The most common type in North America is the 3-prong NEMA 5-15P to C13 cord, which plugs into a standard grounded outlet on one end and into the C14 inlet found on PCs, monitors, servers, and many other devices on the other.

Is a NEMA 5-15P to C13 cord the same as a computer power cord?

Yes. "Computer power cord," "PC power cord," "3-prong power cord," and "IEC C13 power cord" all commonly refer to the same NEMA 5-15P to C13 cord. It is the universal cord used by desktop computers, monitors, printers, and most equipment with a C14 power inlet.

What is the difference between 14, 16, and 18 AWG power cords?

AWG measures conductor thickness — a lower number means a thicker wire that carries more current. 18 AWG cords are rated 10A/125V and suit standard PCs, monitors, and printers. 16 AWG SJT cords are rated 13A/125V for higher-draw desktops. 14 AWG SJT heavy-duty cords are rated 15A/125V and are best for servers, PDUs, high-draw equipment, and longer runs.

What do SJT and SVT mean on a power cord?

SJT and SVT are jacket types. SVT is a lighter, more flexible jacket used on some standard 18 AWG computer cords. SJT is a tougher, thicker jacket rated for harder use — it appears across our 18, 16, and 14 AWG cords and offers greater durability and abrasion resistance for demanding environments.

What devices use a C13 power cord?

C13 power cords power desktop PCs, computer monitors, printers, scanners, servers, network switches, PDUs, and many other devices that have a C14 power inlet. Because the C14 inlet is an international standard, a single C13 cord works across a wide range of equipment brands.

Are CableLeader AC power cords UL listed?

Yes. Our AC power cords are UL Listed and cUL Listed, meaning they have been independently tested to meet United States and Canadian safety standards for current rating, insulation, and plug construction.

What length AC power cord should I choose?

Choose a 3ft cord for routing inside a server rack or on a desktop close to the outlet. Choose 6ft–7ft for reaching floor or wall outlets. Selecting the shortest cord that comfortably reaches reduces cable clutter and improves airflow in racks.

Can I use this as a replacement power cord?

Yes. A NEMA 5-15P to C13 cord is the standard replacement power cord for any device that uses a C14 inlet, including most PCs, monitors, and printers. Match the gauge to your device's amperage — 18 AWG (10A) for standard equipment, 16 AWG (13A) for higher-draw desktops, or 14 AWG (15A) for high-draw devices.
