The Cable Leader 6ft NEMA L6-30P to C19 heavy-duty twist-lock power cord delivers power with a secure, locking connection. The NEMA L6-30P is a twist-lock plug: insert and twist to lock it into a matching L6-30R outlet so the cord cannot be pulled out accidentally - essential in server rooms, racks and industrial settings where an unplug means downtime.
Built with 12 AWG, 3-conductor copper wire and a SJT jacket, it is rated 20A/250V (105C, 300V cable rating) for heavy-duty equipment, PDU and rack loads. The IEC C19 end plugs into the equipment inlet; fully molded connectors with strain relief and a grounded 3-wire design keep the connection safe and durable.
Where it is used: rack-mount PDUs and UPS systems, servers and storage, network and AV equipment, and any gear that needs the security of a locking L6-30P connection.
