Manufacturer description

The Cable Matters 2-Pack 16 AWG Right Angle Power Cord replaces the stock cord on your desktop PC, monitor, HDTV, laser printer, powered speakers or ceiling-mounted projector. Each 6ft cord has a straight NEMA 5-15P grounded plug on one end and a 90-degree IEC 60320 C13 connector on the other. The C13 end plugs into any standard recessed C14 inlet. The angled C13 head runs the cable flat along the back of your device instead of sticking straight out. That helps when a monitor sits close to the wall, a PC is pushed into a desk cubby or a projector is mounted flush to the ceiling. The 16 AWG…

Frequently Asked Questions

Will this cord fit my computer power supply or monitor?

Yes, if the device has a standard recessed IEC C14 inlet, which most desktop PCs, monitors, HDTVs, laser printers and projectors use. The cord's IEC C13 end plugs into that inlet.

How long is each cord and how many are included?

Each cord is 6ft long, and the pack includes two identical cords. That makes it easy to power a computer and monitor with matching cables.

What is the amp and voltage rating?

The 16 AWG SJT-rated cord is rated for up to 13 amps and 300 volts. That is enough for common 10A/125V device loads in a standard 120V outlet.

Which way does the right-angle connector point?

The IEC C13 connector is angled 90 degrees so the cable runs parallel to the device. Check your inlet orientation against the product photos before you buy, because the angle is fixed.

Is this better than the cord that came with my device?

Many devices ship with 18 AWG cords. This cord uses thicker 16 AWG wire and adds a space-saving right-angle head, molded strain relief and textured grips.
