1 to 2 NEMA 5-15P to C14 Power Extension Cable for OEM Power Distribution

Why Choose Our NEMA 5-15P to Dual C14 Power Cable?

This cable is built for buyers who need a project-specific splitter assembly, not a generic computer power cord. The key value is controlled wiring geometry: one defined NEMA input, two IEC C14 branches, and a molded structure that can be adapted to the equipment layout.

Single NEMA 5-15P Input Reduces Plug Count and Simplifies Power Routing

The input side uses a standard NEMA 5-15P male plug for compatible North American AC power sources. Instead of using two separate input cords, one plug can feed two designated C14 connection points according to the approved wiring design.

For OEM buyers, this reduces cable count around the power source and makes the final system easier to assemble, label, and inspect. Fewer loose cords. Cleaner routing.

Dual IEC320 C14 Connectors Support Equipment-Specific Integration

The output side uses two IEC 60320 C14 male connectors. This structure is suitable when the equipment design requires C14-style interfaces at two defined positions, such as power distribution modules, test fixtures, control boxes, or custom cabinet systems.

Important detail: IEC C14 is a male inlet-style connector. The mating method, touch protection, mounting environment, and safety requirement must be confirmed before production. The drawing matters.

Molded Splitter Junction Helps Control Branch Stress

The central splitter point can be formed with an injection-molded junction to hold the two branch cables in a controlled position. This helps reduce stress around the internal splice and keeps the assembly more organized inside cabinets or test systems.

For repeat production, this improves consistency. Each branch exits from a predictable location, which helps production teams avoid cable crossing, tight bends, and inconsistent routing during final equipment assembly.

Grounded Cable Structure Supports Safer Electrical Planning

NEMA 5-15P and IEC C14 are commonly used in grounded AC power applications when the cable is built with the correct three-conductor structure. Ground continuity should be confirmed in the final wiring diagram and certified configuration.

For metal enclosures, rack hardware, test benches, and power distribution equipment, do not assume the rating from the connector name alone. Confirm AWG, conductor count, jacket type, branch length, and certification route before bulk production.

Complete Product Specifications

Buyer's Insight: The main selection point is connector direction and safety use. C13 is usually the female cord connector used to plug into equipment. C14 is the male inlet standard, often used as an equipment-side power entry. If your project requires two C14 ends on a cable assembly, confirm whether they are panel-mounted, protected, or designed for a controlled enclosure before quotation.

Professional Applications You Can Trust

For OEM power modules, one NEMA 5-15P input may need to feed two defined IEC C14 positions inside a controlled system. This cable helps reduce separate cord routing and gives engineers a cleaner way to define branch paths from one input source.

For test benches and diagnostic fixtures, technicians may need repeatable power routing between a North American AC source and two IEC C14 interfaces. A 1-to-2 splitter structure keeps the setup organized and reduces loose adapter stacking around the bench.

For rack-mounted or cabinet-based equipment, branch length control matters. Custom C14 positioning helps each connector reach its target module without excess cable loops that block airflow or service access.

Advanced Safety Features

The NEMA 5-15P to IEC C14 structure should be used only in applications where the connector layout is electrically and mechanically appropriate. Because IEC C14 is a male connector, its exposed-pin behavior must be handled through approved equipment design, proper housing, or panel integration.

Ground continuity should be verified through the final conductor structure, wiring diagram, and test plan. The connector family can support grounded applications, but grounding is not something to assume without checking the approved production specification.

Molded strain relief helps reduce bending stress around the plug, splitter junction, and C14 connector exits. This is important when cables are routed through narrow cabinet channels or repeatedly packed with equipment.

Manufacturing Excellence

Our factory supports OEM and ODM manufacturing for custom power cord assemblies, including NEMA plugs, IEC C14 connectors, splitter junctions, molded strain relief, cable printing, jacket selection, packaging, and compliance documentation. Inspection scope, test records, factory history, and certification files can be confirmed according to your purchasing checklist before bulk order approval.

Frequently Asked Questions

Q: Is IEC C14 the same as IEC C13?

A: No. IEC C14 is a male inlet-style connector, while IEC C13 is the female connector commonly used on standard computer power cords. Please confirm your mating interface before placing an order.

Q: Is this NEMA 5-15P to dual C14 cable grounded?

A: It can be manufactured as a grounded cable assembly when built with the correct three-conductor structure. Ground continuity must be confirmed in the final drawing, wiring diagram, and certified configuration.

Q: Can the two C14 branches have different lengths?

A: Yes. The two branch lengths, trunk length, wire gauge, jacket type, connector direction, molded housing, and cable marking can be customized according to the equipment layout.

Q: What information is needed for a quotation?

A: Please provide cable length, branch lengths, wire gauge, jacket material, C14 connector orientation, target certification, order quantity, packaging requirement, and any cable printing or molded logo requirement.

Custom Solutions for Your Business

Branch Length Customization: Define the main trunk length and two C14 branch lengths so each connector reaches the intended equipment interface without excess cable inside the system.

Wire Gauge & Jacket Selection: Choose 18AWG, 16AWG, or 14AWG pure copper conductor options with SJT, SVT, or PVC jacket configurations based on load, flexibility, and certification route.

Custom Molding: Adjust the NEMA 5-15P plug shape, splitter junction size, IEC C14 connector orientation, strain relief length, and molded logo to match your product structure.

Certification Matching: Cable markings, test documentation, packaging labels, and compliance files can be prepared according to your target market and purchasing checklist.
