Southwire 1489SW0002 Outdoor Extension Cord 14/3 100 Ft

Product Description

The SOUTHWIRE 1489SW0002 is a 100-foot, 14/3 AWG outdoor extension cord rated for 13 amps at 125 volts AC. Built with SJEOOW cord construction, it is designed for flexibility and durability in demanding outdoor environments. The yellow jacket provides high visibility on job sites, and the single NEMA 5-15R receptacle accepts standard 15-amp plugs. Licensed electricians, HVAC technicians, and general contractors routinely rely on heavy-gauge extension cords like this one for powering tools and equipment during field service calls, installs, and maintenance work where a fixed outlet is not within reach.

This extension cord is suited for outdoor residential and light commercial applications including lawn and garden equipment, job site power tools, portable lighting, and temporary power runs during construction or service work. The SJEOOW jacket rating indicates the cord is oil-resistant, weather-resistant, and rated for outdoor use in variable temperature conditions. At 14 AWG with three conductors, it supports full-load operation at 13 amps over the full 100-foot run without significant voltage drop for most standard 120-volt tools and equipment.

Installation Notes

This cord should be installed and used by qualified electricians or trade professionals in accordance with NEC Article 400 governing flexible cords and cables. Always inspect the cord jacket for cuts, abrasions, or damage before each use, and never operate at loads exceeding the 13-amp rating. Do not run this cord under flooring, through walls, or in conduit — it is rated for temporary portable use only. Coil and store properly after use to prevent jacket cracking and conductor fatigue.
