There are numerous types of power cords built for a variety of functions, and it can be intimidating trying to figure out which one it is that you really need. Whether you're looking to power a home office or a building full of servers, it's important to know that you're getting the right power cable at the right price.

NEMA Power Cables

For most jobs, a NEMA power cable is all you'll really need. NEMA-rated power cords meet the standards set by the National Electrical Manufacturers Association. Our NEMA Power Cords come in different lengths, sizes, and configurations. Depending on what you're looking for in terms of security of your connection, you have the option of selecting our commonly-used NEMA 5-15p to C13 PC Power Cords featuring a rocking power switch, as well as locking 10A power cords.  If you're worried about your power cords getting damaged due to cramped spaces necessitating bending cables to fit, you should consider purchasing an angled NEMA 5-15p to C13 power cable. 

Our NEMA 620P to IEC320 C19 Power Cords are built to connect a CPU to a 20A high-voltage wall outlet, UPS or power distribution unit. This cable is manufactured with a heavy-duty jacket and 12awg conductors capable of handling 20 amp heavy loads, and it's UL-listed, which means it's been tested to ensure it meets nationally-recognized safety and sustainability standards.
