About NEMA Plugs, Sockets, and Receptacles


	Negative	NEMA 1-15 Plug
	Positive

Plug these adapter cords into a standard outlet and they change AC voltage to DC voltage, so you can power many electronic devices.

When selecting a cord, make sure the DC voltage and amps for the barrel output connection can handle the requirements of your device. Choosing a DC voltage and amps that are much higher than you need will not improve performance.

Next, the polarity of the adapter cord and your device must be the same. Look for the polarity illustration on your device or the adapter cord you’re replacing and pick a cord to match.

All of these cords use switching regulation, which means they produce the stated voltage despite fluctuations in your outlet’s power and the power being drawn by your device. It also means they won’t get too hot.

With an LPS low-voltage output, if something fails inside these cords, they’ll limit the risk of electrical shocks. Class II shock protection means they have two levels of insulation, which also prevents electrical shocks. All have passed strict U.S. and Canadian safety standards.

These cords meet U.S. DOE (Department of Energy) Level VI standards for energy efficiency when they're in-use, as well as when they're plugged in but not in use.

Pair these adapters with power cords that have the plug style and cord length you need to run DC-powered devices from your outlet. Unlike adapters with bodies that plug directly into an outlet, the body of these adapters rests on a desk or the floor, so it won’t block multiple outlets.

When selecting an adapter, make sure the DC voltage and amps for the barrel or pin output connection can handle the requirements of your device. Choosing a DC voltage and amps that are much higher than you need will not improve performance. For adapters with a barrel output connection, the polarity of your power cord and your device must be the same. Look for the polarity illustration on your device or the adapter you’re replacing and make sure your power cord matches it.

Adapters with an IEC C8 input connection require power cords with a C7 socket. Those with an IEC C14 input connection require power cords with a C13 socket.

These adapters use switching regulation, which means they produce the stated voltage despite fluctuations in your outlet’s power and the power being drawn by your device. It also means they won’t get too hot.

If something fails inside the adapters, the LPS low-voltage output on most adapters will limit the risk of electrical shocks. Adapters with Class II shock protection have two levels of insulation that also prevent electrical shocks. Those with Class I shock protection prevent electrical shocks with a combination of insulation and a protective ground. All have passed strict U.S., Canadian, and European Union safety standards.

All of these adapters meet U.S. DOE (Department of Energy) Level VI standards for energy efficiency when they're in-use, as well as when they're plugged in but not in use. Many also meet EU CoC (European Union Code of Conduct) Tier 2 energy efficiency standards for the same uses.

There’s no need for multiple adapter cords or converters, simply swap out the input plugs on these cords to match the outlets of the region you’re in. Use these adapter cords to run DC-powered devices from an outlet in a variety of different countries.

Next, the polarity of the adapter cord and your device must be the same. Look for the polarity illustration on your device or the adapter cord you’re replacing and pick a cord to match.

These cords meet U.S. DOE (Department of Energy) Level VI standards for energy efficiency when they're in-use, as well as when they're plugged in but not in use.

USB Chargers

NEMA 1-15 Plug

Add a USB cord to these chargers to power up mobile devices and other electronics.

Unlike many chargers in the market, these are high quality and reliable. All have passed strict U.S., Canadian, or European Union safety standards. Some of our chargers even have an LPS output, so if something fails inside the charger, it limits the risk of electrical shock. Our wall chargers also meet standards for energy efficiency when they're in-use, as well as when they're plugged in but not charging. Because the wall chargers use switching regulation, they produce the stated voltage despite fluctuations in your outlet’s power and the power being drawn by your device. It also means they won’t get too hot.

USB-C chargers are quickly becoming the new standard, often seen on new phones and tablets. These chargers are USB-C Power Delivery 3.0 certified, so they charge your devices on average 3-4 times faster than standard chargers because they send more power over your cable. 18W chargers will power phones and tablets sold after 2016. 27W chargers will power small laptops.
