Southwire 1568SW0002 Outdoor Extension Cord 50 Ft 14/3

Product Description

The SOUTHWIRE 1568SW0002 is a 50-foot, 14/3 SEOOW outdoor extension cord rated for 15 amps at 125 volts AC. Built with three conductors at 14 AWG, it delivers sufficient capacity for power tools, lighting, and equipment used on job sites or in outdoor service applications. The SEOOW jacket is oil-resistant, sunlight-resistant, and flexible in cold temperatures, making it suitable for demanding field conditions. It ships in a high-visibility yellow jacket for easy identification on a busy work site. The cord terminates with a NEMA 5-15P plug on one end and a single NEMA 5-15R receptacle on the other.

This extension cord is suited for outdoor use by electricians, HVAC technicians, plumbers, and general contractors needing a reliable temporary power source at residential or light commercial job sites. The 50-foot length provides reach from standard 120-volt outlets to tools and equipment without requiring additional cords. The SEOOW construction handles exposure to moisture, oils, and abrasion typical of ground-level and trench work environments. It is appropriate wherever a single-outlet, 15-amp, 125-volt temporary power run is needed outdoors.
