Hosa PWC-401.5 — IEC C13 to NEMA 5-15P Heavy-Duty Power Cord, 1.5ft
PWC-401.5 Overview
The Hosa PWC-401.5 is a 1.5ft heavy-duty power cord designed to connect IEC C14 inlet equipment to standard North American NEMA 5-15P wall outlets. Built with 14 AWG Oxygen-Free Copper (OFC) conductors, it delivers increased current capacity compared to standard 18 AWG cables, making it a reliable upgrade for power-hungry professional audio gear. Rated at 15A/125V AC, it is suited for guitar and bass amplifiers, powered subwoofers, active PA speakers, and studio workstations. Audio engineers, system integrators, and touring professionals who need dependable, high-current power delivery will find this cord a practical and durable solution.
The molded strain relief connectors and durable black PVC jacket provide long-term reliability under the demands of frequent plugging and unplugging in live and installed environments.
Key Features
- 14 AWG OFC Conductors — Three oxygen-free copper conductors reduce resistance and heat buildup, supporting high-current draw from amplifiers, powered speakers, and large-format consoles
- IEC C13 to NEMA 5-15P Connectivity — Connects directly to the IEC C14 inlet found on professional audio equipment, stage amps, studio monitors, and computing hardware to standard North American wall outlets
- 15A/125V AC Rating — Meets the current demands of high-wattage tube heads, powered subwoofers, and other current-intensive professional gear
- Durable Black PVC Jacket — Resists cuts and abrasion while maintaining flexibility; matte black finish provides low visibility on stage
- Molded Strain Relief Connectors — Reinforced terminations extend cable lifespan under repeated connection cycles in touring and installation use
- 1.5ft Length — Compact form factor suited for rack-mounted gear, tight equipment bays, and short runs where cable management is a priority
