Southwire 2882 Extension Cord 15A 125V 2 Ft Yellow

Product Description

The SOUTHWIRE 2882 is a 2-foot yellow extension cord rated for 15 amps at 125 volts. Built to SJTW-A cord standards, it is suited for light-duty power distribution in residential and commercial settings. The cord features a single NEMA 5-15R receptacle and is UL Listed, making it a reliable choice for temporary power connections on job sites or in equipment setups. Electricians, HVAC technicians, and general contractors keep short extension cords like this on hand for connecting tools, test equipment, or appliances where a direct outlet is not immediately accessible.

This cord is designed for indoor and light outdoor use where a short, manageable run is needed. The SJTW-A jacket provides resistance to oil, water, and abrasion, making it practical in trade environments. At 2 feet, it functions best as a reach extender rather than a long-run power drop, fitting neatly into utility panels, equipment closets, or service areas where cord management is a priority. It ships individually and is available in single-unit quantities.
