Southwire 14880229-6 Extension Cord 15A 120V 50 Ft Yellow

Product Description

The SOUTHWIRE 14880229-6 is a 50-foot, 15-amp, 120-volt extension cord built for demanding job site and trade applications. Constructed to SJEOW cord standards, it is rated for outdoor use and designed to flex in cold temperatures without cracking. The yellow jacket provides high visibility on busy work sites. At 15 amps and 120 volts, it delivers reliable power capacity for tools and equipment commonly used in HVAC, electrical, plumbing, and general trade service work. It carries both OSHA compliance and UL listing, meeting the safety and inspection requirements expected on commercial and residential job sites.

This extension cord is suited for residential and light commercial job site use where a single-outlet, heavy-visibility power extension is needed. The SJEOW jacket rating makes it appropriate for outdoor environments and wet or cold conditions. Electricians, HVAC technicians, plumbers, and other trade professionals use this cord to extend power to work areas during installation, maintenance, and service calls. A single NEMA 5-15R receptacle at the end keeps the setup straightforward and tool-ready.

Installation Notes

Extension cords should be fully uncoiled before use to prevent heat buildup from inductive resistance. Verify that the connected load does not exceed the cord's 15-amp rating. Do not use this cord as a permanent wiring substitute — NEC and OSHA guidelines restrict extension cords to temporary use only. Inspect the jacket and plug for damage before each use and remove from service if the outer jacket is cut, cracked, or abraded.
