Short-Run 18 AWG AC Power Cable with NEMA 5-15P to C13 Connectors and Lifetime Warranty
The C2G 1ft Universal Power Cord (24240) is an 18 AWG AC power cable with NEMA 5-15P to IEC320C13 connectors designed for tight equipment installations where standard-length cords create excess cable clutter. The 1-foot length is purpose-built for rack-mounted servers, network switches, UPS systems, and AV equipment positioned directly beside power distribution units.
C2G, a Legrand Group brand, builds this cord to TAA compliance standards for government and institutional procurement. The 18 AWG conductors support standard equipment power draws at 10A/125V, matching the requirements of monitors, desktop computers, printers, and networking gear. A lifetime warranty backs every cord.
Where the C2G 24240 Power Cord Fits
- Server racks and network closets where equipment sits within 12 inches of the PDU and a 1-foot cord eliminates cable slack that restricts airflow and complicates cable management
- AV installations and conference rooms where monitors and projectors plug into nearby outlets and a short cord keeps the run clean behind wall-mounted displays or equipment shelves
- Government and institutional deployments requiring TAA-compliant accessories where the 24240 meets Trade Agreements Act sourcing requirements for federal purchasing

What Is the Difference Between C13 and C14?
The IEC C13 is the female connector found on the end of power cords that plugs into equipment, while the IEC C14 is the male inlet built into the equipment itself. The C2G 24240 uses a C13 connector on the equipment end paired with a standard NEMA 5-15P three-prong plug on the wall outlet end. This is the most common power cord configuration for desktop computers, monitors, servers, and networking equipment in North America.
