Manufacturer description

The Plugrand 6FT Polarized 2 Prong Extension Power Cord adds 6 feet (1.83 m) of reach to lamps, chargers and other devices that use a standard two-prong US plug. It has a polarized NEMA 1-15P male plug on one end and a polarized NEMA 1-15R female receptacle on the other, so the wide neutral blade stays correctly oriented from the wall to your device. The cord is UL and cUL listed for the USA and Canada and is rated at 10A, 125V. Inside is SPT-2 copper wire, listed as 16AWG in the product specification, inside a molded PVC jacket with double insulation. The white finish is less noticeable…

SpecPicks Verdict

SpecPicks scored Plugrand 6FT Polarized US 2 Prong Male to Female Extension Power Cord using a rating × review-volume × price-fit model applied to published specs and reviews across the cables & connectors category. Plugrand's cables & connectors lineup sits within the broader category mid-tier; price and specs are the deciding factors over brand loyalty here. Judge it on the specification table and the price rather than on sentiment: check the figures that decide your use case, then put it side-by-side with two or three close alternatives in the Compare tool before clicking through.

Common buyer scenarios for cables & connectors of this kind: matching it to an existing build, replacing a failing part, or upgrading from a previous-generation equivalent. Check the spec table below against your current setup — particularly socket / form-factor / power-rating fields — and confirm compatibility on the retailer's listing before purchase. Prices and stock are set by the retailer and may have moved since this page was last updated.

Frequently Asked Questions

Can I plug a three-prong device into this extension cord?

No. The female end is a NEMA 1-15R two-prong receptacle with no ground slot, so it only accepts two-prong plugs. Grounded three-prong plugs need a NEMA 5-15 extension cord.

How much power can this cord handle?

The cord is rated at 10A, 125V. Check the label on your lamp, charger or adapter and keep its current draw under 10A.

What wire gauge is the Plugrand 2 prong extension cord?

The product specification lists SPT-2 16AWG two-conductor copper wire. One feature line on the listing says 18AWG instead, so check the markings printed on the cord jacket if the exact gauge matters to you.

Will a non-polarized plug with two same-size blades fit the female end?

Yes. A polarized NEMA 1-15R receptacle accepts both polarized plugs (one wide blade) and non-polarized plugs (two equal blades). A polarized plug only fits one way, which keeps the neutral blade oriented correctly.

Is this cord certified for use in Canada?

Yes. The cord is both UL and cUL listed, covering the USA and Canada, and uses the standard North American NEMA 1-15 two-prong plug and receptacle.
