Pros & Cons

Pros

  • ✓ Frees a blocked power-strip slot from bulky wall-wart transformers
  • ✓ CSA listed at 13A on 18 AWG, 300V SVT three-conductor cable
  • ✓ One NEMA 5-15P in, two grounded NEMA 5-15R out
  • ✓ 1ft length stays put on a strip instead of drooping

Cons

  • ✗ 1ft is too short to route power across a desk or room
  • ✗ 18 AWG limits it to 13A, below a full 15A circuit
  • ✗ Splits one outlet in two, so total draw still shares one circuit
  • ✗ Three-pin grounded plugs only, no two-prong polarized fit

Manufacturer description

The KUNCAN Power Cord Extension Y Splitter solves a problem every crowded power strip has: bulky wall-wart transformers that block the outlets next to them. This 1-foot SVT cable takes a single NEMA 5-15P male plug and splits it into two NEMA 5-15R female outlets, so you plug the splitter into the strip and your oversized adapter into the splitter, reclaiming the neighboring slot instead of losing it. The build is 18 AWG three-conductor wire rated 300V and 13A, and the assembly is CSA listed. That covers grounded three-pin equipment: desktop towers, monitors, scanners, printers, and power…

SpecPicks Verdict

SpecPicks scored KUNCAN Power Cord Extension Y Splitter using a rating × review-volume × price-fit model applied to published specs and reviews across the power supplies & cables category. KUNCAN's power supplies & cables lineup sits within the broader category mid-tier; price and specs are the deciding factors over brand loyalty here.

Frequently Asked Questions

How long is this power splitter cable?

One foot. It is built to reposition a plug on a power strip, not to add reach across a desk.

What amperage and wire gauge does it use?

18 AWG SVT cable rated 300V, with the assembly CSA listed at 13A. Keep the combined draw of both outlets under that.

Will this work with my computer and monitor?

Yes, if both use the standard three-pin grounded plug. KUNCAN lists computers, monitors, scanners, printers, and power transformers as intended devices.

What connectors are on each end?

One NEMA 5-15P male plug feeds two NEMA 5-15R female outlets, the standard grounded North American three-pin pattern.
