Monoprice 6ft NEMA 5-15P to IEC C5 Power Cord

This compact, black SVT cable uses 18 AWG conductors and a three-prong NEMA plug at one end with an IEC 60320 C5 ("cloverleaf") connector at the other. Built for everyday office and home electronics, it supports typical laptop power supplies and other switched-mode power adapters rated up to 7 amps and 125 volts. The fully molded ends and grounded design prioritize a snug connection and consistent power delivery for compatible devices.

Which devices will this Monoprice cord work with?

This cable is intended for devices that accept an IEC C5 inlet — commonly called a cloverleaf connector — such as many laptop power bricks, portable projectors, and some small appliances. It’s not universal for every laptop; check your power brick’s inlet shape before ordering.

• Compatible with power adapters featuring an IEC 60320 C5 inlet
• Works with many laptop chargers, small projectors, and similar electronics
• Not suitable for devices requiring IEC C13, C7, or other connector types

How durable and safe is this 18 AWG, 7A/125V cable?

Monoprice uses an SVT jacket with fully molded terminations to resist everyday wear and minimize strain at the plug and connector. The cable is rated for up to 7 amps at 125 volts, matching typical power requirements for consumer laptop adapters and small equipment when used as intended.

• 18 AWG conductors sized for common laptop and accessory loads
• SVT jacket designed for flexibility and abrasion resistance
• Fully molded ends reduce the risk of separation or exposed wiring

How long is the cable and how does length affect placement?

The cord is six feet (approximately 1.8 meters), giving extra reach compared with short factory cords while remaining tidy on desks and workstations. Six feet is often a practical balance between reach and cable management for home offices, meeting rooms, or media setups.

• 6 ft length provides comfortable reach from outlets to desks or floor-standing power strips
• Avoids excessive slack that can create trip hazards or clutter
• Ideal for rearranging workspaces without stretching existing adapters

Is this a replacement for the original cable that came with my equipment?

Yes, it functions as a direct replacement when the original cable uses a NEMA 5-15P to IEC C5 connection and falls within the same electrical rating. Always confirm connector type and amp/voltage requirements printed on your device’s power adapter to ensure compatibility.

• Direct swap for lost or damaged NEMA 5-15P to IEC C5 cables
• Check your adapter’s inlet and electrical ratings before replacing
• Intended for consumer electronics matching the 7A/125V specification

Who is this for: This Monoprice power cord fits anyone who needs a reliable 6-foot replacement or spare cable for laptop power bricks, small projectors, and other devices with an IEC C5 inlet. It’s aimed at home office users, IT technicians stocking replacement parts, and travelers who prefer a lightweight, grounded cable with molded ends for consistent connections.
