Manufacturer description

The Cablelera ZADA36PQ-Y-P2 is a short Y-splitter power cord. It turns one NEMA 5-15 outlet into two grounded NEMA 5-15R outlets. Each pack has two splitters, so you can fix two crowded spots at once, such as a desk and a gaming shelf. Each cord is 14 inches long, uses 16AWG wire and has a fully molded black finish. The combined load is rated at 13A, 125V. That suits the devices it was designed for: monitors, computers, chargers and small appliances.

Frequently Asked Questions

How long is the Cablelera ZADA36PQ-Y-P2 splitter cord?

Each splitter is 14 inches long. It is a short splitter for outlet expansion in tight spaces, not a full-length extension cord.

How many splitters come in the pack?

The listing says 2 pieces per pack. You get two separate NEMA 5-15P to 2x NEMA 5-15R Y-splitters.

Can I run two computers or a PC and monitor off one splitter?

Yes, as long as the combined draw of everything connected stays within the 13A, 125V rating. The splitter adds outlets but does not increase the capacity of the wall outlet.

Will it work with 20-amp plugs or twist-lock connectors?

No. It is built for standard North American NEMA 5-15 plugs only. It is not compatible with NEMA 5-20 plugs, locking plugs or high-draw equipment.

What wire gauge does the cord use, and can I use it outdoors?

The cord uses 16AWG wire with a fully molded construction. The manufacturer lists it for indoor use, so do not use it outdoors.
