Butler Preferred Brand 2548swusa1 Extension Cord 50 Ft 15A

Product Description

The BUTLER PREFERRED BRAND 2548swusa1 is a Type SJTW heavy duty extension cord rated for 125 volts and 15 amps, built for demanding job site and field service environments. The cord runs 50 feet and carries three 12 AWG conductors, delivering the wire gauge needed to support power tools, test equipment, and service machinery without excessive voltage drop. Lighted ends provide a quick visual indication that the circuit is live, a practical feature when working in low-light conditions. The SJTW jacket rating means the cord is suitable for outdoor use and is oil- and water-resistant. This is the cord for electricians, HVAC technicians, plumbers, and other trades who need reliable temporary power at distance from an outlet.

This extension cord is suited for residential and commercial job sites where a durable, weather-resistant temporary power solution is needed. The NEMA 5-15 plug and receptacle configuration makes it compatible with standard 15-amp, 125-volt household and commercial outlets. The 50-foot length covers typical service runs from exterior outlets, panel rooms, or mechanical spaces to the work area. The 12 AWG conductor size supports continuous use at rated load without the heat buildup associated with undersized extension cords. Rated for temperatures from -40 to 60 degrees C, it remains flexible and functional in cold outdoor conditions.

Installation Notes

Extension cords are intended for temporary power use only and should not be used as a substitute for permanent wiring. Ensure the connected load does not exceed the 15-amp rating of the cord. Inspect the cord for damage to the jacket, plug, or receptacle before each use, and do not use if any damage is found. NEC guidelines prohibit the use of extension cords in place of permanent branch circuit wiring.
