Eaton P005‑002 – Power Extension Cord 15 A 250 V

Overview

The Eaton P005‑002 is a heavy-duty power extension cord designed for structured IT rack deployments. It is primarily used by data center engineers, network architects, and infrastructure teams to interconnect power distribution units (PDUs), servers, and other rack-mount equipment where the existing cabling is insufficient or replacement is required.

This cable features IEC‑320‑C14 (male) to IEC‑320‑C13 (female) connectors, rated for 15 A at 250 VAC, with 14 AWG conductors and an SJT PVC jacket. It is designed to safely carry standard IT loads and maintain regulatory compliance, making it suitable for mission-critical environments that require reliable power continuity.

At a length of 2 ft (0.61 m), the P005‑002 is ideal for connecting adjacent rack devices without creating excess slack that could obstruct airflow or complicate cable management. Its compact form factor fits neatly within standard 19‑inch rack enclosures, supporting high-density server, storage, and networking installations.

The cable is compatible with PDUs and other devices that use IEC‑320 power inlets. Deployment is straightforward, with no special tooling required, and it integrates seamlessly into existing 250 V rack power ecosystems.

A practical deployment example includes connecting a rack PDU output (C14) to a server input (C13) in IDF or data center racks where short extension lengths are preferred for safety and airflow management. This cable should not be used with mains wall outlets or in circuits exceeding 15 A, as it is designed strictly for IEC interconnect applications in IT environments.
