30A 125V NEMA L5-30P Twist-Lock Power Cords | World Cord Sets

General Information:

The NEMA L5-30P is a 3 Wire grounded plug with a hot, neutral and ground pin rated up to 125V and 30A. This plug can be locked into place on the matching receptacle which prevents nuisance disconnection. This plug looks nearly identical to L5-20P but is slightly larger in pin thickness and alignment circumference. Refer to either plug,  receptacle or faceplate to find out your amp requirements.

What does the NEMA L5-30P Plug into?

The NEMA L5-30P Plugs into both the L5-30R Connector which is commonly found on extension cords and power drops, and the NEMA L5-30R Wall Outlet which is commonly found in Industrial and Commercial settings.

General Information:

The IEC 60320 C13 is a grounded 3 Wire connector rated up to 250V and 15 Amps. The C13 mates with a C14 inlet, and is commonly used in a jumper cable scenario in IT Installations providing power from a PDU to a server, router, switch or other computing device. Most people know the C13 as 'the thing that plugs into my computer' because it is the standard connector used to power most desktop computers. In a desktop computer application, the most common cable is the NEMA 5-15P to C13, which connects your standard North American wall outlet to a desktop computer. The iec 320 c13 c14 plug and connector are synonymous with Information Technology equipment primarily, but the C13 can be found powering equipment like medical devices and gaming consoles.

What does the IEC 60320 C13 Connect to?

The IEC 320 type C13 connector is designed to connect to the IEC 320 C14 plug and inlet. The C14 Plug is commonly found on power cords located in office, commercial or data center settings since the C13 inlet is usually only found in those environments. The C14 Inlet is commonly found on a variety of IT Equipment like monitors, switches, printers, power adapters, and more.

General Information:

The IEC 60320 C19 is a grounded 3 Wire connector rated up to 250V and 20 Amps. The C19 can be found on a variety of power cords, including NEMA to 320 Adapter cords, and International Plug types to IEC 320 connectors, but the most common application is the IEC 320 C20 to C19 power cord which is a a standard extension cord used to power high powered IT Equipment. The C19 is typically used in high powered blade server chassis, large network routers, and other IT equipment that draws more power than a standard C13 can accommodate.

What does the IEC 60320 C19 Connect to?

The IEC 60320 type C19 connector is designed to connect to the IEC 320 C20 plug and Inlet. THE C20 Plug is commonly found on power cords used in the data center industry. The C20 Inlet can be found on a variety of high powered IT Equipment ranging from switches to Un-Interrupted Power Supply systems.

General Information:

NEMA L5-30R is rated up to 125VAC and 30A. This connector couples with the L5-30P and locks into place preventing nuisance disconnection. This feature makes it popular in commercial and industrial settings where there is high traffic. This connector is common in the L5-30 Extension Cord Series where it is used to extend power from a L5-30R wall receptacle or connector to a certain location for convenience.

What does the NEMA L5-30R connect to?

The NEMA L530R Locking Connector is designed to be twisted into a locking position with the NEMA L5-30P Locking Plug. This plug is commonly found on higher powered devices that are used in buildings where standard 125V power supply is present, in a location where there is high traffic.

General Information:

The open end of a power supply cord is hard wired to another device, providing power either to our from that device. Unless otherwise noted, our power supply cords come standard with a 2" ROJ (Remove Outer Jacket) and a 1/4" Strip. The ROJ length determines the length of the individual conductors, and the Strip length determines the amount of copper exposed on the end of each conductor. If you require a custom ROJ or Strip length, please don't hesitate to reach out to us.

International Color Code(ICC) vs. North American Color Code(NACC)

For the majority of our customers, the color code used for the cordage is negligible. However, for OEM customers, or customers dealing with government installations or projects that have highly specified cords the color code used will be important to establish. Our standard color code for our Cut/ Remove of Outer Jacket/ Strip Conductor Job is North American Color Code (NACC).
