Manufacturer description

The Tripp Lite P006-006-13LA is a 6-ft computer power cord with a standard NEMA 5-15P wall plug on one end and a left-angle IEC-320-C13 connector on the other. The angled head turns the cable sideways as soon as it leaves the inlet. That helps when your PC tower, monitor, or retro build sits close to a wall or desk panel, where a straight C13 plug would stick out and bend the cord. The cable is 18AWG (0.824 mm) SJT jacketed wire rated for 10 amps at 125 volts. It is UL listed and RoHS compliant, so it works as a like-for-like replacement for the cord that came with most desktop power…

Frequently Asked Questions

Will this cord fit my PC power supply or monitor?

It fits any device with a standard IEC-320-C14 inlet, the three-prong socket used on most desktop power supplies, monitors, and many retro PC and CRT units. The other end is a NEMA 5-15P plug for standard North American wall outlets.

Which direction does the left-angle connector point?

The C13 head bends 90 degrees so the cable exits to the left. Which way that actually runs depends on how the inlet is mounted on your device, so check the orientation of your socket before ordering. If the angle points the wrong way, a straight or right-angle C13 cord will fit better.

What are the electrical ratings of the P006-006-13LA?

The cord is 18AWG (0.824 mm) SJT wire rated for 10 amps at 125 volts. It is UL listed and RoHS compliant.

Does the Tripp Lite power cord come with a warranty?

Yes. Tripp Lite lists a lifetime warranty for this cord. Check the manufacturer's warranty page for current claim terms and registration requirements.
